2.How Judges ThinkHow Judges Think
from Harvard University Press
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
I would agree with many of the reviewers that this is Posner at his finest. Although I tend to be skeptical of his articulation of pragmatism (especially via his selective use of economic theory), I found that this book really destroys the false binary that posits a clear split between activist and... more info

from Free Press
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
Dr. Sowell examines the concept of "social justice" (or, on a larger scale, "cosmic justice") and proceeds to demonstrate its foolishness.

14.Economic Analysis of Law (Casebook)Economic Analysis of Law (Casebook)
from Aspen Law & Business

Customer Review:
First of all, the law and economics movement did not originate with Richard Posner. To his credit, he does reference the men who collectively formulated the modern utilitarian theory called "law and economics."

Things are quite simple. If there is A contemporary debate in jurisprudence, it is the so-called Hart/Dworkin debate.

from The MIT Press
Price: $35.70

Customer Review:
His central concern is implied by the title. We can't really see a law as a law unless it's backed up with enforcement. That's law as a "fact." But we also want law to reflect values that we can rationalize and validate. That's law as a "norm." This difficult study is worth the effort for anyone who... more info
