Reviews
A comprehensive criticism of modern administrative law, from its first principles to its finest details-in other words, quintessential Richard Epstein. -- Adam White, Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and Director of George Mason University's C. Boyden Gray Center for the Study of the Administrative State
Richard Epstein is one of the very few scholars who can speak with authority about a subject as broad as the morality of administrative law. In this superb, clearly written and informative book, he contrasts traditional and modern administrative law and makes a powerful case that the modern administrative state fails the most important test of a legal system: consistently advancing the Rule of Law. -- Peter J. Wallison, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of Judicial Fortitude: The Last Chance to Rein in the Administrative State
