Reviews

Against the Law is a sometimes playful, sometimes pungent polemic about the state of legal theory today. Three authors from different parts of the political spectrum come together in this book to attack contemporary legal scholarship's complacency, idolatry, and insipidness. Against the Law is not against the law; just the ways law professors imagine it. -J. M. Balkin, Yale Law School Against the Law is must reading, especially for those who believe that Law does or can embody Reason and Morality. Campos, Schlag, and Smith, ever the iconoclasts, raise profound questions about both the truth of these claims and their meaning. All legal theorists will benefit from the encounter with this highly intelligent, quite original, and unflinchingly skeptical work. -Larry Alexander, University of San Diego School of Law
