Reviews

'The study of the interaction between legal institutions and economic development is one of the most important research areas in economics and law. Professors Cooter and Parisi have produced a remarkable anthology. Their selection of articles and the way they have structured the literature form an original contribution in themselves. Even those who are already familiar with the literature will enjoy the refreshing perspective that is being offered by two of the leading scholars in the field.' - Gerrit De Geest, Washington University School of Law, US
