Economic Foundations of Law

ECONOMIC FOUNDATIONS OF LAW appeals to those who are looking for strong applications of economic analysis to the law. Unlike many of the current offerings in this market, Spurr does not take for granted a student's knowledge of the law and thus has written a book much more accessible for undergraduates. Examples of applications of economic principles are provided in the following major areas of law--property law, trusts and estates, torts, contracts, civil procedure, criminal law, taxation, and corporate law.
