Warm, warm congratulations to @FTanguayRenaud and @m2dempsey. This remarkable, wide-ranging @OUPLaw volume is a gift and a testament to John Gardner's lifetime of extraordinary and path-breaking work in legal philosophy.
It's finally here! 🎉 Bittersweet celebration...grateful to hold this volume in my hands, but the pain of losing John Gardner far too young hits all the harder today. Thanks to @FTanguayRenaud for co-editing!
