"They tell you at the Law School that the law is a wonderful science--the perfection of reason. Wonderful fiddlesticks! 'Tis in fact a hodge-podge of Roman Law, Bible texts ... crazy fictions, and long dead statutes. Your professors try to bring order out of chaos and make sense where the devil himself couldn't find any.

英文版是比中文版看的過癮些，也慢多瞭……唉……

很不錯的一本教科書，寫法跟中文教科書很不一樣，一些基本觀念講得清楚透徹，生動有趣，不僅有大量真實的案例，還經常援引文史學科的例子來啓人思考，記得一上來就是Kafka的Before the Law，印象中還有涉及Orwell的Shooting An Elephant。在國內買過一本中譯本，剛到美國時就買瞭原版，可惜後來沒怎麼去讀。
