Guido Calabresi thinks it is time for this country seriously to consider returning to a traditional American judicial-legislative balance in which courts would enlarge the common law and would also decide when a rule of law has seen its day and should be revised.. The dominance of legislatures and statutory law has put an impossible burden on the courts
It addresses current social and legal issues from an engagingly fresh, nonpolemical, and erudite perspective. (Columbia Law Review) . (American Bar Association Journal)Calabresi has brought his ample juristic talents to bear on a foundational problem of the legal and democratic processin its quality, timeliness and provocativeness this book is likely to stand alongside the seminal works of Ronald Dworkin and Grant Gilmore. This is a genuinely original and thoughtful book, one of the few in the jurisprudential genre that is both dearly written and devoid of cliché
