Why do some rules have the status of law while others do not? Is law simply a matter of rules anyway? What is justice? This updated new edition of Legal Theory asks questions such as these, discusses topical issues such as animal rights, and explains some of the answers which legal theorists have given from Ancient Greece to the present day.
