American Cases in the Philosophy of Law

<p>“Samuel Zinaich has produced an immensely valuable book for students and instructors who are looking for a distinctively philosophical approach to the study of law. The text provides a rich array of topics, thoughtfully arranged. By emphasizing recent case law, Zinaich’s text shows how significant legal-philosophical debates are to contemporary American life.” — Linda Radzik, Texas A&M University</p><p>“Professor Zinaich has created an ideal text for undergraduate courses in philosophy, law, and politics. His volume emphasizes the ethical, historical, and interpretive arguments driving Supreme Court opinions across diverse areas of law and public policy. The closely edited case excerpts and incisive questions about theoretical and practical implications will inspire active class discussion about fundamental constitutional, moral, and philosophical debates.” — Frank J. Colucci, Purdue University Northwest</p>
