This book explores the questions of 'what calls for thinking about law' and 'what does it mean to think about' alongside Heidegger's thought. Martin Heidegger, that 'greatest of thinkers, but smallest of men', has not been served particularly well by legal philosophers. That is, not until the publication of Oren Ben-Dor's Thinking about Law. In the opinion of this reviewer, this subtle and detailed analysis of the contribution of Heidegger's thought to our understanding of law constitutes an original and important contribution to both legal theory and Heidegger's scholarship?This is a book that should be read by anyone with a serious interest in a phenomenology of law, and what it means to construct legal theory?it constantly confronts us with the radical differences between the transcendental perspective of continental phenomenology and English-speaking analytical philosophy. Ben-Dor certainly seems conscious to this, and builds complexity of the text as he progresses?It is an impressive piece of scholarship and a book that will reward re-reading.
