Law is a curious discipline. If you are anything like this reviewer, your interest in the law first caught fire in your youth, kindled by an uncomplicated, even naive, passion for human rights and the role that ‘the law’ can play in protecting the weak and the wronged.
This is a passion that could then be indulged at university as one wrestled with various notions of legal philosophy, such as the apparent dichotomy between legal positivism and natural law theory. Then, for many, comes a legal career: applied, practical and all too concerned with bringing order to the ‘reality’ of (personal or commercial) life to allow much, if any, room for philosophising.
