Recenzii

Smith did have a distinctive way of understanding law, and an equally distinctive idea of private law. And if, despite the careful and sustained attention in this book, they sometimes resist easy analysis, that is also testament to their distinctiveness. It should be read by all wishing to join in this great celebration of a great scholar, but particularly by those interested in legal methodology and private law adjudication.
