Judge Cardozo develops further in this book the theory of law expressed in The Nature of Judicial Process. Having dealt with the question, “How do I decide a case?” he now asks, “How should I decide it?” “The present work glows with the same passionate sincerity that marks his judicial utterances . . . facility of expression, breadth of imagination, and lucidity of thought.”—Columbia Law Review
