Practical Reason in Law and Morality - MacCormick, Neil (Formerly Regius Professor Emeritus of Public Law and the Law of Nature and Nations in the University of Edinburgh)

This book offers a clear account of the philosophy of practical reason in ethics and legal theory. It explains how reasons relate to actions, the nature of values and their relation to reasons, and the relation of morality to legal reasoning. It provides an ideal introduction to these issues for students of moral philosophy and jurisprudence.
