Issues in Law and Economics offers an easy yet stimulating introduction to the field through a collection of legal cases with step-by-step commentary of how they can be examined from a law-and-economics perspective. For each case, Harold Winter outlines the basic background in simple terms, giving the facts of the case and explaining the court s decision and legal reasoning. He then demonstrates the ways in which economic analysis can be used to evaluate the court s reasoning. The manuscript is organized into four main sections: property, contracts, torts, and crime, also with a final chapter on behavioral law and economics. The cases are a mix of those that are historically important with those that are more obscure but still useful in demonstrating interesting ideas. The book also features at the end of each case thoughtful discussion questions that will encourage readers to apply for themselves an economic framework and to make their own discoveries. "
