Details

Lloyd and Freeman’s Introduction to Jurisprudence is the leading textbook on jurisprudence in the English-speaking world. It enables the reader to develop a good understanding of the theories of the different schools of jurisprudence, and to appreciate the contributions made to legal theory by leading jurists and others, from ancient times to the present day.

Lloyd combines a substantial text with extracts from a wide range of authoritative sources. The works of more than 150 jurists are extracted, from Aristotle to Judith Butler, and beyond. These are supported by detailed and well-documented introductory sections which offer critical insight into the texts. Students and their teachers will profit from having in one book a wide-ranging compendium of legal thought. Lloyd is a library in itself.

This tenth edition includes significant reorganisation of the text into two distinct sections: Schools of Thought and Themes; together with 11 new extracts from modern sources, bringing the debate right up to date.

Lloyd and Freeman’s Introduction to Jurisprudence offers both text and library, enabling students to find, comprehend and evaluate the core materials, classical and contemporary, in one of the most difficult but exciting of disciplines.
