Law as Logic and Experience

By Max Radin

Book Overview

"Although this volume does not purport to be a serious contribution to legal science or to legal philosophy, it is full of the mellow wisdom, the gracious erudition, the provoking phrase, and the human sympathy that make almost anything that Max Radin says or writes worth pondering. It presents a series of lectures on two texts: the dictum of Coke, J. 'Reason is the life of the law,' and the dissenting opinion of Holmes, J., 'The life of the law has not been logic, it has been experience.'" Felix S. Cohen, Harvard Law Review 54:711.
