The Genius Of The Common Law

""The Genius of the Common Law"" is a collection of lectures delivered by the renowned legal scholar, Frederick Pollock, at Columbia University in 1912. The book explores the history and development of the common law legal system, which has its roots in medieval England and has since spread to many countries around the world. Pollock examines the unique features of the common law, such as its reliance on precedent and its flexibility in adapting to changing circumstances. He also discusses the role of judges and lawyers in shaping the law, and the importance of legal education in maintaining the integrity of the system. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of law, and it remains a classic work in the field over a century after its original publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
