Description
Book SynopsisWe live in a world of one-size-fits-all law. People are different, but the laws that govern them are uniform.

The authors offer a highly readable, carefully argued case for a most provocative thesis. Recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals. General readers. * J. A. Gauthier, CHOICE *
