A Short History of European Law brings to life 2,500 years of legal history, tying current norms to the circumstances of their conception. Tamar Herzog describes how successive legal systems built upon one another, from ancient times through the European Union.

Port Talbot, 1958. A town of smoke and steel, sea air and shift work, terraced streets and quiet watchfulness. It is the kind of place where people do not simply live alongside one another, they notice one another.
