Description
Bloomsbury Publishing PLC The Fall of the Priests and the Rise of the Lawyers by Mr Philip Wood
This fast-paced inspiring and original work proposes that the secular legal systems around the world provide an immeasurably bigger and more comprehensive moral regime to govern our lives than the religious codes. Backed by potent and haunting images the book states that the law for all its faults is the one universal ethical framework that everyone believes in and that the law is now by far the most important ideology we have for our survival. Written by one of the most important lawyers of our generation this exciting and powerful book is a major philosophical statement for our times.
