Index
Neil Duxbury is Professor of Law at the University of Manchester
`Review from previous edition Neil Duxbury has added a sharply
focused, but rich and informative, contribution to legal
theoretical literature ... along the way one learns a host of
fascinating and unfamiliar facts, and is introduced to bodies of
scholarship the existence of which one may never have suspected.
The range of material that has been drawn together in this book is
quite breathtaking.'
N. E. Simmonds, The Cambridge Law Journal
`Duxbury's Random Justice is stimulating throughout and wonderfully
researched...his book has encouraged me to reflect more on the
special sort of fairness that is present in randomization, and what
all this might reveal about reason and the rule of law.'
Bruce Chapman University of Toronto Law Journal Vol 50 2000
`This is a fascinating work and a piece of great scholarship....
History remembers books which make a real challenge to our
thinking, and this is such a book.'
David Jabbari, Legal Studies
`the book is an excellent resource for the growing body of
academics interested in chance and lotteries.'
Barbara Goodwin, THES
`Among legal academics, Duxbury's explicit challenge to the
supremacy - or hubris - of reason should spark some fireworks.'
Barbara Goodwin, THES
