The Oxford Handbook of Law and Economics covers over one-hundred topics on issues ranging from law and neuroeconomics to European Union law and economics to feminist theory and law and economics. The book gathers together scholars and experts in law and economics to create the most inclusive and current work on law and economics. It begins at the origins of the field of law and economics, tracks its progression and increased importance to both law and economics, and looks to the future of the field and its continued development by examining a cornucopia of fields touched by work in law and economics.
