The broad questions presented on its pages are fundamental to a proper conception of the tasks of legal philosophy… In particular, her analysis of legalism is a fully convincing explanation of the connection between law, and ethics and politics; and a demonstration of the need for law to come forth from its not-so-splendid solitude… The abundance of issues which Professor Shklar raises and examines brilliantly from her point of view make her book a constant pleasure to read.
