This fast-paced, inspiring and original work proposes that, if religions fade, then
secular law provides a much more comprehensive moral regime to govern our
lives. Backed by potent and haunting images, it argues that the rule of law is the
one universal framework that everyone believes in and that the law is now the
most important ideology we have for our survival.
The author explores the decline of religions and the huge growth of law and
makes predictions for the future of law and lawyers. The book maintains that
even though societies may decide they can do without religions, they cannot do
without law.
The book helpfully summarises both the teachings of all the main religions and
the central tenets of the law—governing everything from human relationships
to money, banks and corporations. It shows that, without these legal constructs,
some of them arcane, our societies would grind to a halt. These innovative sum-
maries make complex ideas seem simple and provide the keys to understanding
both the law and religion globally. The book will appeal to both lawyers and
the general reader.
The book concludes with the author’s personal code for a modem way of
living to promote the survival of humankind into the future.
Vividly written by one of the most important lawyers of our generation, this
magisterial and exciting work offers a powerful vision of the role of law in the
21st century and its impact on how we live.
