  Talks about jurisprudence - or legal philosophy. This book attempts not only a jurisprudential reading of popular culture, but a popular rereading of jurisprudence, removing it from the legal experts in order to restore it to the public at large: a lex populi by and for the people.

  Deals with the topic of jurisprudence or legal philosophy. This title considers the legal philosophical texts that are - to say the least - unorthodox. It references Tolkein , Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Harry Potter , Legally Blonde , and others as instances of what the author calls lex populi - 'pop law'.
