Summary
Suggests that, due to the large number of laws passed by the legislatures, the judges are no longer able to keep up with the laws
Amazon.com description: Product Description: The dominance of legislatures and statutory law has put an impossible burden on the courts. Guido Calabresi thinks it is time for this country seriously to consider returning to a traditional American judicial-legislative balance in which courts would enlarge the common law and would also decide when a rule of law has seen its day and should be revised.
