Includes bibliographical references and index.

Writing in the tradition of Karl Llewellyn's classic 'The Bramble Bush', Paul Kahn speaks, simultaneously, to students and scholars. Drawing on thirty years of teaching experience, Kahn introduces students to the deep, narrative structure of the judicial opinion. Learning to read the opinion, the student learns the nature of legal argument. Thus Kahn's exposition of the opinion simultaneously offers a theory of legal meaning that will be of great interest to scholars of law, humanities, and the social sciences.
