ISBN: 9781584778462 / Angielski / Miękka / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A decisive influence on sociological jurisprudence, legal realism and the general development of Anglo-American law in the twentieth century.

ISBN: 9780374532444 / Angielski / Miękka / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. If the U.S. Supreme Court teaches us anything, it is that almost everything is open to interpretation. Almost. But what's inarguable is that, while the Court has witnessed a succession of larger-than-life jurists in its two-hundred-plus-year history, it has never seen the likes of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Combative yet captivating, infuriating yet charming, the outspoken jurist remains a source of curiosity to observers across the political spectrum and on both sides of the ideological divide. But for all his public grandstanding, Scalia has managed to elude... If the U.S. Supreme Court teaches us anything, it is that almost everything is open to interpretation. Almost.
