Sources of Law, Legal Change, and Ambiguity

"The scope and profundity of learning displayed in the text is awesome. . . . A first-rate book."—Michael H. Hoefflich, University of Illinois School of Law

"The author has done an astounding job in illustrating, in so few pages, what a hash judges and lawyers have made of their sources over the centuries and across the breadth of what was once thought of as Western civilization."—Law and History Review

"A valuable and ambitious discussion of the 'sources of law'-how law is developed and what authority gives it legitimacy."—Michigan Law Review
