{"product_id":"9780198252931","title":"Common Law and English Jurisprudence, 1760-1850","description":"In this book, Michael Lobban argues that a proper understanding of English law and jurisprudence in the period is needed to clarify the nature of common-law practice and the way in which it was envisaged by its practitioners. He questions some commonly-accepted views of the nature of the common law itself and argues that attempts - notably those by Blackstone and Bentham - to expound or to criticize common law in essentially theoretical terms were mistaken. Hisapproach is not a philosophically-based one, but he is concerned with the evolution and spread of judicial ideas which were grounded upon the work of moral and political philosophers, and makes a valuable corrective contribution to our historical understanding of a critically important period in legalhistory.","brand":"Michael Lobban","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45741946798398,"sku":"9780198252931","price":8701.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780198252931.jpg?v=1707222438","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780198252931","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
