Hardback. Condition: Good. Judges and legal scholars talk past one another, if they have any conversation at all. Academics criticize judicial decisions in theoretical terms, which leads many judges to dismiss academic discourse as divorced from reality. Richard Posner reflects on the causes and consequences of this widening gap and what can be done to close it.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Here one of Americas most distinguished scholar-judges shares with us his vision of the law. Posner argues for a pragmatic jurisprudence, one that eschews formalism in favor of the factual and the empirical.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This edition continues to emphasize the essential social functions of legal and literary texts, but it also explores areas of mutual illumination and expands its range.
