Abstract
"This book is the product of chance discoveries, happy coincidences, and a working partnership. When Ian Kyer came to the University of Toronto Law School in 1977, he felt that he was leaving his historical pursuits behind. When Jerome Bickenbach entered the school the next year, he too feared that he would have little time to think or write about the philosophy of law. Though we had both earned doctorates in our respective disciplines, we turned to law because employment prospects seemed so much better there..." -Preface
