Reading the Law: Critical Introduction to Legal Method and Techniques Peter Goodrich
Reading the Law is a contemporary interdisciplinary introduction to the study of law. Drawing on historical, lingusitic, sociological and philosphical materials, it provides the tools for a literary criticism of the subject. Moreover, in addressing the question of how lawyers and students read the texts of the legal tradition, it provides a general and critical introduction to the law and to the significance of the legal discipline.
