UNAUTHORIZED BIOGRAPHY OF THE LAW

Fábio Ulhoa Coelho, Matthew Rinaldi - WMF Martins Fontes

SINOPSE

How do judges decide different things applying the same law to identical cases? Why do some laws stick and others don't? What is judicial activism and why has it been criticized? Isn't legal reasoning very opaque and full of useless filigree? Unauthorized Biography of Law was written for people asking these questions. Although it doesn't give all the answers, it presents information and offers explanations that can help in understanding this intricate universe where laws, court cases, legislators, judges, lawyers, the police, etc. are found. It is a book written with the non-legal public in mind, but students and legal professionals will also benefit from reading it. It serves as support literature for the subjects of Introduction to the Study of Law and Philosophy of Law.
