The Legal Mind

The Harvard law professor Thomas Reid Powell, is credited with saying: if you can think about something that is related to something else without thinking about the thing to which it is related, then you have a legal mind".1 Once our amusement caused by this sarcastic comment fades, we should realize that Powell is referring here to something more than a stereotypical picture of a boring, abstraction-loving lawyer. It may well transpire that it is not a stereotype, but rather a standard which we are laughing at, while fully embracing it at the same time"--
