Description: This is the first book to explore the canonical narratives, stories, examples, and ideas that legal decisionmakers invoke to explain family law and its governing principles. Jill Elaine Hasday shows how this canon misdescribes the reality of family law, misdirects attention away from actual problems family law confronts, and misshapes policies.
Brief description: Jill Elaine Hasday is Distinguished McKnight University Professor and Centennial Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota.
