Description
"Legal Reason describes and explains the process of analogical reasoning, which is the distinctive feature of legal argument. It challenges the prevailing view, urged by Edward Levi, Cass Sunstein, Richard Posner, and others, which regards analogical reasoning as logically flawed or as a defective form of deductive reasoning. The use of analogical reasoning is dictated by the nature of law, which requires the application of rules to particular facts. Written for scholars as well as students, practitioners, and persons who are generally interested in law, Legal Reason is written in clear, accessible prose, with many examples drawn from the law and everyday experience."--BOOK JACKET.
