Review Quotes:
"It is not only an epistemological discussion: the work lays out some gems of substantive law in addition to, indeed often as examples of, its core discussion of how comparative study is best carried out...there are valuable contributions to the theory of comparative law...the reader will find very stimulating and valuable insights on the indispensable contribution of comparative law." --Matthew Dyson, Cambridge Law Journal, Vol 66/1, March 2007
"the overall effect is to make the reader rethink his or her understanding of comparative law and, in particular, how he or she approaches this discipline. It thus provides a fascinating addition to the so far limited discussion of epistemology and methodology of comparative law at a time when interest in this subject is growing rapidly." --Dr Paula Giliker, St Hilda's College, Oxford, Common Law World Review
