Overview
This Major Reference series brings together a wide range of key international articles in law and legal theory. Many of these essays are not readily accessible, and their presentation in these volumes will provide a vital new resource for both research and teaching. Each volume is edited by leading international authorities who explain the significance and context of articles in an informative and complete introduction.

The International Library of Law and Legal Theory is designed to provide important research materials in an accessible form, each volume containing essays of central theoretical importance in its subject area. The Areas section of the series takes in the main branches of the law with an emphasis on essays which present analytical and theoretical insights of broad application. The present work is in two volumes, available individually (for $150) or as a set. The essays in Volume I, The Concept of "Privacy" (9264-2), represent some of the best attempts to elucidate the concept of "privacy." While a number of the essays proceed from an explicitly legal viewpoint, their major and in most cases central objective is to offer a definition (either for the law or more generally) of this difficult idea. The essays in Volume II, Privacy and the Law (9265-0), trace the principal features of the legal evolution of the "right of privacy" in both constitutional and tort law. Annotation c.
