WHAT COURTS OUGHT TO DO. Authoritative, educational, and entertaining.

Discover the principles of interpretation, including: FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts

Interpretation Principle. Every application of a text to particular circumstances entails interpretation.

by Antonin Scalia and Bryan A. Garner

Context Principle. The words of a governing text are of paramount concern, and what they convey, in their context, is what the text means.

In this groundbreaking book, Scalia and Garner systematically explain all the most important principles of constitutional, statutory, and contractual interpretation in an engaging and informative style – with hundreds of illustrations from actual cases.

SEMANTIC CANONS Ordinary-Meaning Canon. Words are to be understood in their ordinary, everyday meaning—unless the context indicates that they bear a technical sense.

Fixed-Meaning Canon. Words must be given the meaning they had when they were adopted.

SYNTACTIC CANONS Grammar Canon. Words are to be given the meaning that proper grammar and usage would assign them.

Last-Antecedent Canon. A pronoun, relative pronoun, or demonstrative adjective generally refers to the nearest reasonable antecedent.

CONTEXTUAL CANONS Whole-Text Canon. The text must be construed as a whole.

Presumption of Consistent Usage. A word or phrase is presumed to bear the same meaning throughout a text; a material variation in terms suggests a variation in meaning.

Is a burrito a sandwich? Is a corporation entitled to personal privacy? If you trade a gun for drugs, are you “using a gun” in a drug transaction? The authors grapple with these FOR THE FIRST and dozens of equally curious TIME IN 100 YEARS* questions while explaining THERE IS A BOOK THAT the most principled, lucid, • Collects the canons of and reliable techniques for legal interpretation deriving meaning from • Shows how and why authoritative texts. these canons apply Meanwhile, the book takes up some of the most controversial issues in modern jurisprudence. The authors write with a well-argued point of view that is definitive yet nuanced, straightforward yet sophisticated.
