COMING IN 2025!!!
Have Yourself a Merry Legal Christmas: Laws and Justice in Holiday Movies and TV Shows from Scrooge to Seinfeld takes the reader on a fun, informative, and compelling journey. It combines the spirit of the Christmas season and the foundations of jurisprudence to illustrate legal principles. Is Ebenezer Scrooge committing usury in his business dealings in A Christmas Carol? What are the legal implications regarding bearer bonds in Die Hard? How does a Christmas talent show reflect the laws of community policing on Car 54, Where Are You?
Building on the Socratic tradition of law schools using hypothetical scenarios involving fictional characters to illustrate legal theories, Have Yourself a Merry Legal Christmas makes the law accessible to a general audience but will also have great appeal for the millions of lawyers in the United States. It is the perfect stocking stuffer for lawyers, business executives, popular culture buffs, and anyone that once believed in Santa Claus. Or still does.
