Show summary

Conclusion The use of ordinary dictionaries in interpreting the law is justified in the same way that chemists use the periodic table. ███ ████████ █████ ██ █ ██████████ ██████ ██ ███████████ ██████████ ███████████ ████ ███ ██ ████████ ███████ ██ ███ ███████ ██ █████ █ ███████ ██ ████████ ██ ███ ████ ████ ████████ ████████████ ███ ██ ██████ ██ █ █████ ███████████ ██ █████████ ██████████████ ███████

Summarize Argument

The author concludes that the use of ordinary dictionaries is justified in interpreting the law. This is based on an analogy to how chemists use the periodic table. The periodic table is a source of agreed-upon background information that can be useful for chemists. The author believes that ordinary dictionaries can be useful to legal interpreters trying to resolve terminological issues in the same way that periodic tables are useful for chemists

Notable Assumptions

The author assumes that the relationship between periodic tables and the problems chemists work on is relevantly similar to the relationship between ordinary dictionaries and the resolution of terminological issues.
