Description
This book is a unique and stylish reflection on the true value of comparative legal research. Arguing that the presumption of similarity that underlies much comparative legal research is dangerous and faulty, Grossfeld draws examples from the German and American legal systems to discuss legislation, private and public international law, domestic law, culture and law, geography and law, language and law, and religion and law.
