At a time when complaints are heard everywhere about the excesses of lawyers, judges, and law itself, the author focuses attention on the American legal mind and its urge to lay down the law. For him, legalism is a way of thinking that extends far beyond the customary official precincts of the law.
Offers a critique of American legal thought and the American legal system's deification of reason. In an attempt to understand the current malaise of American law and the depressed condition of American intellectual life in general, the author diagnoses what he believes is an epidemic of pathological reliance on the principle of reason.
A fundamental critique of American law and legal thought, this book consists of a series of essays written from three different perspectives that coalesce into a criticism of contemporary legal culture. It is of interest not only to the legal academics under attack in the book, but also to sociologists, historians, and social theorists.
