About the Author
"Samuel Zinaich succeeds in formulating an approach to judicial interpretation that transcends limitations of both moral subjectivity and classic positivism. His arguments merit the attention of scholars in philosophy, legal theory, and the history of political thought."
— Frank J. Colucci, Author of Justice Kennedy's Jurisprudence: The Full and Necessary Meaning of Liberty
