Book excerpt: A Solid Introduction to Legal Philosophy This lucid, wide-ranging account traces the evolution of the philosophy of law and offers an introduction to its primary authors. Berolzheimer is especially interested in the law's ability to serve as a progressive humanitarian force. This is evident, for example, in the contribution it has made to the emancipation of repressed social classes. "These fundamental questions are discussed by Dr. Berolzheimer in a work of remarkable learning... I have before me as I write the works of Stahl, Krause, and Lasson, dealing with the Philosophy of Law. They are not comparable with this volume in point of research." --Sir John Macdonell, Introduction, xxix Fritz Berolzheimer [1869-1920] was a German legal philosopher and author of the five-volume System der Rechts- und Wirtschaftsphilosophie (1904-07). This work is the second volume of that set. He was managing editor of the important philosophy of law journal, "Archiv für Rechts-und Wirtschaftsphilosophie" and president of the International Society of Legal and Economic Philosophy in Berlin. Rachel Szold Jastrow [d. 1926] was a suffragist and sister of Henrietta Szold, founder of Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America. Her husband, Joseph Jastrow, was a professor of psychology at the University of Wisconsin. Sir John Macdonell [1846-1921] was an eminent British jurist and Quain Professor of Comparative Law at University College, London.
