J. Stanley McQuade, a longtime professor of law, knows all too well that you cant teach the subject by reiterating technical rules and procedures.

To really understand law and how it works, it is necessary to identify and consider the underlying ideas that led to the creation of law and legal systems. Thats exactly what he does in this collection of stories.

All of the characters in each of the storiesexcept oneare entirely fictitious, but they provide a critical introduction to important thinkers who have contributed substantially to the development of law, such as John Austin, the American legal realists, Bentham, John Rawls, St. Thomas Aquinas, and others.

The stories also explore topics such as the nature of legal science, legal logic, the place of moral values in the law, and the proper conduct of law reform.

Whether youre a student seeking to answer questions about important founding principles of the law, a teacher aiming to make learning about law fun and interesting, or someone simply craving more knowledge, youll learn valuable lessons about the legal system with Jurisfictions.
