Regulating sex Book

A challenging + insightful exploration of morality, criminal law, and the limits of freedom with equally as insightful critiques of John Stuart Mill, James Fitzjames Stephen, and Lord Patrick Devlin. Woohoo!

“The real solvent of social morality, as one critic of Lord Devlin has pointed out, is not the failure of the law to endorse its restrictions with legal punishment, but free critical discussion. It is this—or the self-criticism which it engenders—that forces apart mere instinctive disgust from moral condemnation.”
