The Nature and Sources of the Law

by John Chipman Gray, Roland Gray, David Campbell (Editor)

Gray (1839-1915) spent most of his career teaching property, trusts, and future interests at the Harvard Law School. This work symbolizes the revolt of 20th-century jurisprudence against the dominant utilitarianist and historicist schools. Reprints the 1921 second edition, which was prepared from notes by his son after Gray's death. Includes a new introduction, provides a clearer layout, corrects obvious errors, and prunes excessive punctuation. Distributed in the US by Ashgate. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
