''The Artifactual Nature of Law is a great collection of chapters that deal with the nature of law and legal systems. The idea of law as an artifact sheds new light on the ontology, semantics and normativity of law. Additionally, the book explores fascinating topics such as the functions of law and the nature of institutional beliefs and intentions.''
