The Last Man is a post-apocalyptic science fiction novel by Mary Shelley, which was first published in 1826. The book tells of a future world that has been ravaged by a plague. The novel was harshly reviewed at the time, and, except for a 1924 silent film based on it, was virtually unknown until a scholarly revival beginning in the 1960s.

The meditations outlined within this book map out the

He was what every trial court judge should be.
