Good law Book

An Italian legal scholar, Leoni is virtually unknown in America. A nice alternative to the positivists and deconstructionists. Good reading for students of the common law, Roman law, civil law. My favorite quote (I paraphrase, for I do not want to look it up):

"Some scholars insist that freedom is just a concept, one among many. But many people have fought and died for freedom. The triangle, too, is a concept... but I doubt that anyone would fight and die for triangles. Perhaps a few mathematicians might."
