This is the third and final volume of a series by the distinguished German legal historian Michael Stolleis. The first two volumes covered the periods 1600–1800 and 1800–1914 respectively. Like its two predecessors, the final volume is a sweeping, meticulously documented, finely written treatment of the development of the discipline of public law in Germany. Thomas Dunlap's excellent translation does not lose any of the original's analytical clarity and stylistic elegance. Stolleis does not seek to provide the last word on debates over the history of the inter-war period. However, he carefully identifies and explores important continuities and discontinuities from the Reich to the Nazi periods in the areas of legal education, scholarship, and publishing. Moreover, by suggesting possible linkages between these salient continuities and discontinuities, on the one hand, and the basic contours of some aspects of legal practice, on the other, his work will prove to be an excellent point of departure for those interested in the legal scholarship of this period
