What is Max Weber on Law in Economy and Society (Twentieth Century Legal Philosophy, Vol. 6) about?

Ever since it was made known to English-speaking readers by R. H. Tawney and Tolcott Parsons, the thought of Max Weber has attracted increasing attention among students of sociology, history, economics, jurisprudence, political science, and political philosophy. His far-flung ideas were systematically brought together in his last book, Economy and Society , the major part of which was not published until after his death in 1921. Of this most comprehensive and significant of all of Webers writings, only the Introductory Part has so far been available in English. The present book contains an English translation of those parts of Economy and Society in which Weber investigates the relationship between the social phenomenon law and the other spheres of social life, especially the economic and the political. The translation, by Edward A. Shils and Max Rheinstein, is accompanied by an extensive introduction and explanatory and bibliographical notes by Max Rheinstein. The Introduction will acquaint the reader with the problems of sociology of law in general and with Webers approach and methods in particular. The notes are meant to help the reader understand Webers wide-ranging references
