Editorial Reviews

Review

"Ernest Weinrib's new book deserves our highest attention. No one who thinks seriously about the nature of private law can afford to ignore this work. In addition to providing a compelling account of the nature of private law, this book puts into serious question the leading contemporary accounts of the nature of law. In short, this is a book from which any student of law will learn much...No account of private law can be complete without addressing Weinrib's position." --Dennis Patterson (Modern Law Review) "Clearly and elegantly written. The debate that Weinrib engages is important and Weinrib's own position in the debate should be heard. He makes a significant contribution by arguing the importance of understanding tort law by reference to its own internal structure." --George P. Fletcher, School of Law, Columbia University "The Idea of Private Law presents a position about tort law which in my view is essential, and develops that position in a way that is both powerful and eloquent. Weinrib stands out among those who have analyzed tort law from a justice perspective. This is a brave and distinguished book." --Gary T. Schwartz, University of California, Los Angeles "The Idea of Private Law is a complex and stimulating book which deserves to be read by anyone interested in private law. Weinrib shows clearly why certain theories about the functions and justifications for private law are inadequate, and he causes the reader to think in new and fruitful ways about old problems." --Peter Cane, Oxford Journal of Legal Studies 1996
