Book Details
First Sentence
"The aim of this book is threefold: firstly to argue that Adam Smith developed a number of suggestions from David Hume into a new and original answer to the perennial philosophical question of how legal criticism is possible; secondly, to show how the answer was the basis for Smith's system of natural jurisprudence and as such the core of his political thought; and thirdly, to give a systematic account of Smith's natural jurisprudence."
