Opis

This controversial book explores the potential for the use of lotteries in social, and particularly legal, decision-making contexts. Neil Duxbury considers in detail the history, advantages, and drawbacks of deciding issues of social significance by lot and argues that the value of the lottery as a legal decision-making device has generally been underestimated.

Recenzje

Among legal academics, Duxbury's explicit challenge to the supremacy - or hubris - of reason should spark some fireworks.
