Each author considerswhether rights essentially protect individualinterests or whether they instead essentially enableindividuals to make choices. Those interested inthe basic nature of rights and other entitlementswill profit greatly from reading this book.

The book would be particularly interesting and useful to Indian jurists,legal writers, academics and students who challenge the “rights-basedjurisprudence” of “western origin” upon the basis of which the Indianlegal system rests and the framework within which all legal adjudicationin Indian courts takes place. This book with its emphasis on analyticalclarity, can illuminatingly clarify that the debate in modern Indianjurisprudence is not so much about an emphasis on “rights” or “duties”,for one correlates with the other, but rather who the right ought to vestin, or, taken the other way round, whom the duty ought to be owedto—the individual or the community.The book is highly relevant for: l LL.B. programme—Jurisprudencecourse etc. l LL.M. programme—Right-Duty correlation; Theories ofRights course etc..

The laws relating toIPRs are still in their nascent stage and full of loopholes and dichotomy.On the other hand, the advent of newer technologies has necessitatedthe existence of well-defined and efficient laws relating to IPRs.

Matthew H. KramerIn Defense of Legal Positivism:Law Without Trimmings

1st Indian Edition, 2003Price Rs 550.00

The author is Professor of Legal and PoliticalPhilosophy in the University of Cambridge.

Whenever there is a legal rule, the question arises:what makes the legal rule different from otherrules? For example how is a rule of cricket differentfrom the legal rule that only the owner of a house(or those who have his permission) can normally enter it? This bookexplores this question in the context of morality—whether a legal rulemust be moral before it can have the character of a legal rule.

The author distinguishes between different possible meanings of‘morality’ in this context—whether a law has to be good and not evilfor it to be a law—or whether a law has to be in the interest of thecommon people and not just politicians for it to be a law.

The main argument of the book, in defence of legal positivism, is that alaw to be a law can be evil and a law can be purely in the interests ofpoliticians and still be a law—it does not have to be good, and nor doesit have to be for the benefit of the people. This is what the author callsthe “separability of law and morality”: the key argument of legalpositivism.

The chapters of the book discuss the arguments of various authors,such as Fuller, Dworkin, Finnis and MacCormick—who argue that for

Gerard McMeelThe Modern Law of Unjust Enrichmentand Restitution1st Indian Edition, 2003 Price Rs 695.00

The law of restitution is the law of failed or mistakentransactions. Given that almost as manytransactions fail as succeed, it is as important andessential an area of law which the student andlawyer need to know as the law of contract.

The law of unjust enrichment has had a statutorybasis in India since 1872, but it was only in 1991,in the landmark House of Lords case of LipkinGorman v Karpnale, that it was settled in Englandthat the basis of the law of restitution is the unjustenrichment of the defendant. Once the basis of the law was settled1991, this area of the law has seen stupendous development in Englandin the following decade. This book written in a very simple and clearstyle, makes this difficult and new area of law easily accessible to thelawyer and the student.

The largest number of cases in this area relate to S. 72 of the ContractAct, and have to do with overpaid income tax, sales tax or excise duty,and the most difficult question before the Court is the defences availableto the defendant. There has been a great deal of development and caselaw in this particular area in England, and there are six chapters in thebook that cover a treatment of ‘Defences’. Even though Indian law hashad a statutory basis since 1872, the law is comparativelyunderdeveloped in India. This book, by making available all the latestdevelopments in English law in this area in the 1990s, precisely, simplyand in a small volume, can greatly aid the development of the law inIndia.Therefore this book would be invaluable to Contract lawyers, Taxlawyers, Corporate lawyers, Government lawyers, judges, students andacademics who wish to understand this complex area of law andcontribute to its development in India.

innovations, limitations and dilemmas of Public Interest Litigation havebeen well explained. The scope of the book has been further enlargedby adding a new chapter on Law Relating to Legal Aid and Lok Adalats.

The work has been extensively revised for its new second edition andlatest decisions of the Supreme Court and the High Courts have beenincorporated. The Courts have entertained PIL to uphold the dignity ofhuman beings, protect human rights especially of the weaker section ofthe society and provide social justice as enshrined under the IndianConstitution and International Conventions. The courts have alsodeveloped a new area of compensatory jurisprudence. In protecting therights of women, the prisoners and undertrials, children, public healthand safety, rule of law, the courts have also provided compensation tothe victims.
