{"product_id":"law-and-the-modern-condition-lawrence-friedman-9781616193911","title":"Law and the Modern Condition: Literary and Historical Perspectives","description":"\u003cp\u003exv, 266 pp. xv, 266 pp. Using fiction as a lens to view our present circumstances and our growing concerns about terrorism and civil liberties, each of the essays discusses a work of literary fiction - some classical, some modern - that concerns, directly or indirectly, the historical development of the law. Each essay considers the legal lessons about the fictional event or events at its core, lessons that tell us something worth remembering as we continue to chart law's evolution. These lessons, like those that may be found in all great literature, necessarily extend beyond the historical confines of the characters and plot and background of each story to embrace the modern condition - which, as these great stories suggest, is and always has been the only condition.Published by Talbot Publishing, an imprint of the Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawrence Friedman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1616193913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781616193911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Talbot Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Lawrence Friedman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48217488392447,"sku":"9781616193911","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a7a224e-6e58-43e8-8bc0-267e888624bf.jpg?v=1771997548","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/law-and-the-modern-condition-lawrence-friedman-9781616193911","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
