Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
In these pages, Steven Lubet recently reviewed A Tour of the Calculus, by David Berlinski.

It is completely understandable--even admirable that one might be led to ruminations on the relationship between calculus and one's own discipline. There is little doubt that the subject of calculus stands as one of the great intellectual feats of Western thought. It has had profound implications for physics, engineering, economics and many other disciplines-so why not law? Alas, these philosophical musings …
