Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. is generally considered one of the greatest justices of the United States Supreme Court. In more than 2,000 opinions, Holmes delineated an impressive legal philosophy that profoundly influenced American jurisprudence, particularly in the area of civil liberties and judicial restraint. In The Common Law, the ideas and judicial theory of Holmes can be studied and appreciated.
