Reviews

[Fried] is exceedingly well versed in legal history, the history of economic theory, and intellectual history. She has made splendid use of Hale's papers... Any reader will find in Hale an exceptionally deep thinker on what the legal and economic systems are, at bottom, all about. In all respects, this is a very substantial and successful book. - Journal of American History By far the best work on the legal realist movement's attack on 'laissez-faire,' and one of the best demolitions, in law or political theory, of that contested concept. - Cass R. Sunstein, University of Chicago Law School
