Common Sense Versus Common Law is a classic jurisprudential work that critically examines the reasoning processes of the common law system. The book explores how judge-made law, shaped by precedent and tradition, can sometimes drift away from logic, fairness, and practical common sense.Through analytical discussion and illustrative examples, the author highlights the tension between legal formalism and the realities of human experience. The work challenges blind adherence to precedent and argues for a more rational, socially responsive approach to judicial decision-making. It sheds light on the strengths and weaknesses of common law as a living legal system. This Indian Reprint (2025) revives an influential text that remains relevant for modern legal discourse. Widely valued for its clarity and critical insight, the book is ideal for readers seeking a deeper understanding of judicial reasoning, legal philosophy, and the evolution of common law principles.
