520 "This textbook presents a clear exploration of the
historical developments and ideas that give modern
thinking its distinctive shape. It guides students through
the rival standpoints on jurisprudence from the origins of
Western jurisprudential thought and the classical
tradition to the emergence of 'modern' political thought.
Chapters on Hart, Fuller, Rawls, Dworkin and Finnis lead
the reader systematically through the terrain of modern
legal philosophy, tracing the issues back to fundamental
questions of philosophy, and indicating lines of criticism
that result in a fresh and original perspective on the
subject. The third edition includes a new chapter on
feminist legal scholarship and non-Western approaches.
Praise for the previous editions: 'An ideal starting place
for anyone interested in, or studying, legal philosophy
... Its simple but ambitious aim to provide a concise and
accessible guide is easily achieved.' (Student Law
Journal) 'A decent choice for an introductory course on
jurisprudence, or for a serious student who wishes to
study on his or her own.' (Canadian Law Library)"--
