'Epistemic Uncertainty and Legal Theory admirably succeeds in its chosen task of developing meta-theoretical criteria according to which we can evaluate competing theories of law. It offers a convincing and highly original argument for the preferability of inclusive over exclusive positivism as an account of the legal ordering of societies founded on constitutionally-entrenched charters of rights. The style is elegant and marked by a beautifully controlled economy of argument. An influential book that is a pleasure to read.' Antje du Bois-Pedain, University of Cambridge, UK
