What makes an argument in a law case good or bad? Can legal decisions be justified by purely rational argument or are they ultimately determined by more subjective influences? These questions are central to the study of jurisprudence, and are thoroughly and critically examined in Legal Reasoning and Legal Theory. First published in 1978, this work is now a classic legal text. Its clarity of explanation and argument make it readily accessible to lawyers, philosophers, and any general reader interested in legal processes, human reasoning, or practical logic.
