‘If you want to know the law and nothing else – you have to adapt the position of a bad man’ (5)
To understand the law in itself as a subject in isolation out of context
This is entrance to legal realism – if you want to know what law is you have to know what it does not what it says
This is pragmatism: notion ideas are what they do in the world not what they call themselves
But often this is confused in proposition that separation of law and morality
Holmes: description of morality and there is what the law does 
Realistically – Holmes would say – in order to know what the law is you have to know what you can really do – on this level movement for abortion rights in the US is a bust
Holmes: moral language doesn’t do much good, you want to know what is actually going to happen – bad man needs that kind of information
There is surely law that is not in the books that you need to know – how things work
But in principle law is the prediction about the application of public force
