- Synopsis
- In this book, Vandevelde (law, Thomas Jefferson School of Law) attempts to identify, systematically analyze, and simplify into applicable terms the characteristics of legal thought and reasoning. Twelve chapters are organized into three sections: basic legal reasoning, reasoning with policies, and perspectives on legal reasoning. Chapters cover topics like analyzing the law, policy analysis, synthesis, and application, and contemporary perspectives on legal reasoning. The second edition includes a new appendix describing the way legal reasoning is taught in law school and how students can use this text to reinforce their reasoning skills.
