One of the first volumes in the new series of prestigious Oxford Handbooks, The Oxford Handbook of Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law brings together specially commissioned essays by twenty-six of the foremost legal theorists currently writing, to provide a state of the art overview of jurisprudential scholarship. Each author presents an account of the contending views and scholarly debates animating their field of enquiry as well as setting the agenda for further study. This landmark publication will be essential reading for anyone working in legal theory and of interest to legal scholars, philosophers and legal theorists looking for an introduction to current jurisprudential thinking.
The impressive broad survey of issues under each topic in the Handbook will prove very useful for the student or scholar hoping to acquire deeper knowledge of the major issues on a particular topic, or wishing to find references for further reading on a particular issue. * Singapore Journal of Legal Studies *
The depth of analysis in most of the essays in the Oxford Handbook is remarkable, as one would expect from such a range of eminent jurisprudential thinkers ... the world of jurisprudence is much the richer for [its] publication. * The Irish Jurist *
