2 As Finnis recounts in the Postscript to Natural Law and Natural Rights: “The book was commissioned by the editor of the Clarendon Law Series, H. L. A. Hart, soon after I became a colleague of his as a Fellow of University College Oxford, in the autumn of 1966. He asked me to write a book for his series, a book called Natural Law and Natural Rights; he repeated this title, to make clear what he wanted.” Finnis, John, Natural Law and Natural Rights, 2nd ed.
