From the Back Cover

"Artificial Intelligence and the Rule of Law is a timely, richly textured guide to the fast-converging worlds of legal tech, governance, and ethics. The book integrates doctrinal analysis with empirical benchmarks and even includes executable code. The book is a resource for courts, regulators, and builders alike. Each chapter offers a clear entry-point, whether you are tracking the EU AI Act, designing compliance tools, or re-thinking judicial accountability in the LLM era. It is a valuable addition to the AI-and-law shelf." - Kevin P. Lee, Intel Chair, Social Justice and Racial Equity Professor, Faculty of Law, North Carolina Central University, Durham, North Carolina, United States

"Artificial intelligence holds great promise to improve access to justice and strengthen the rule of law. At the same time, technology challenges the traditional ways of making, applying and understanding the law. This book investigates both chances and risks and offers novel and thoughtful solutions. I very much recommend engaging with it." - Felix Steffek, Professor of Law and Deputy Faculty Chair, Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK; Global Distinguished Professor of Law, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana, United States
