Judgment is simple, right? This book begs to differ. Written for
all students of the law—from undergraduate to supreme court
justice—it opens the reader to a broad landscape of ideas
surrounding common law judgment. Short and accessible, it touches
upon the many pathways that lead out from the phenomenon of
judgment in common law jurisdictions. This book is unique in its
brevity and scope. It engages not only with the core operation of
judgment as legal decision, but considers questions of authority
and reason, and broader issues of interpretation, rhetoric, and
judicial improvisation. The aim of this book is not to present a
summary of research or a comprehensive ‘theory’ of judgment,
nor is it bounded by the divisions of different legal subjects.
Instead, it is a handbook or companion for students of the law to
read and return to in their studious journeys across all common law
topic areas, providing readers with a robust and open-ended set of
tools, combined with selected further readings, to facilitate their
own discovery, exploration, and critical analysis of the rich
tapestry of common law judgment.
