This book presents a developed theory of how national lawyers can approach, understand, and make use of foreign law. Its theme is pursued through a set of detailed essays which look at the courts as well as business practice and, with the help of statistics, demonstrate what type of academic work has any impact on the 'real' world. Engaging with Foreign Law thus aims to carve out a new niche for comparative law in this era of globalisation, and may also be the only book which deals in some depth with both private and public law in countries such as England, Germany, France, South Africa, and the United States.

D'une ecriture elegante mais claire et ferme, d'une liberte de ton rejouissante, il offre au lecteur une methode fondee sur l'experience et un tresor d'informations qui le met au fait des derniers developpements dans le domaine du droit compare.
