Review
Goldman is not just a theoretician concerned with giving an abstract description of rule making and breaking; because he is heavily invested in the everyday consequences of rules, Practical Rules will interest many nonphilosophers. In particular, he devotes nearly a quarter of the book to legal rules and illustrates his arguments with constitutional questions and ethical disagreements that broaden the book's appeal. At the same time he engages today's main thinkers on rules, including Robert Nozick, Ronald Dworkin, and John Rawls, who add depth and nuance to the arguments. --Eric de Place
