Recenzje

'… Legal Barbarians is an important contribution to the discipline of comparative law … The book is also very well referenced, constituting an excellent bibliographic resource for the critical comparative jurist. Finally, it is also very pleasant to read. Concentrated in less than 200 pages - which is rare - it makes us think and travel thanks to its sometimes poetic analogies and images …' Eugénie Mérieau, Droit et Société (from French)
