Recenzii

‘This is one of the most accessible introductions to Law & Economics with a wide coverage of topics and approaches. It is one of the very few books on Law & Economics that are written from a genuinely transatlantic perspective.’
  • Florian Wagner-von Papp, University College London, UK

‘This is the best book available for introducing UK-based students to the subject- it is easy to understand without an economics background, uses UK and EU cases, and addresses criticisms of the economic approach without compromising on the need to make sure students can understand and apply the insights of economics to legal issues.’
  • William O’Brian, Warwick School of Law, UK

Descriere

The relationship between law and economics is complex and wide-reaching. This new textbook explains law-and-economics theory in an accessible and straightforward manner. Drawing on the neoclassical tradition of economic analysis of law as well as the behavioural movement from cognitive psychology, Fundamental Principles of Law and Economics provides a comprehensive summary of the relationship between law and economics and legal theory by contextualising legal issues relevant to the UK and the US. In addition to his own analysis of the topic, Devlin provides references at the end of every chapter to the most important books and articles in the field, in order to further individual study.
