Friedman, Lawrence M.
A H ISTORY OF AMER ICAN LAW
A unique and comprehensive history of American laW- Its
origins, substance, procedures, and growth. Thi s National Book
Award nominee makes clear the contrapuntal balance be–
tween law and the society it serves, demonstrating the extent
to which modern law- and modern society-bear the imprint
of the legal past. " This concise history is nothing less than
superb. Desi gned for laymen, it IS detail ed enough to both
interest the professional and provide depth, wit hout resorting
to the turgid prose of most lawyers' books. Fri edman is at ease
with fact, trend, theory, and policy and he writes well. Good
bibliographica l essay."-Choice. " The book is well docu–
mented and highly readable, and the author successfully
shows that law changes with the times and is eternally new."–
Library Journal. " Professor Fri edman's mature and reilec tive
book will surely become a standard work in American legal
history and likely will remain for many yea rs the only general
treatment of the subject."-James W . Ely, Jr., Vanderbilt Law
Review.

EXP LORAT IONS IN PSYCHOH ISTORY
The Wel lfleet Papers
This volume, by the founding practitioners of thi s evolving
discipline, explo'res the potential of psychohistory for learning
more about man in time by combining historica l research with
psychological knowledge and inSights. The papers trea t not
only press ing contemporary problems such as nuclear weapons
and you th rebellion, but also the more abstract but co nstant
human elements- death, immortali ty, play, love and tradition.
" This collection of papers ... is an important and potentially
influential contribution in the emergence of the new diSCipline
of psychohistory.... The presence of essays by Lifton, Erikson,
Robert Coles, Kenneth Keniston, and Philip Rieff demonstrates
both the serio usness of the effort as well as the depth of
analysis."- Library Journal.
