Author: Frederick Henry Lawson Publisher: ISBN: Category : Law Languages : en Pages : 168
Book Description
This book consists of a series of four lectures delivered under the auspices of the Hamlyn Trust. It is a comparison of English law with other systems. Within its compass it would be impossible to cover the whole field of law, and the author has therefore chosen to deal fairly fully with selected topics of exceptional importance. The author is a Professor of Comparative Law, and in comparing the English and other systems he has sought to show that, contrary to a widespread opinion, our law is orderly and rational, although not reduced to codified form. In the last lecture the author closes with a summary of his conclusions, which are of great interest. In the law of contract he refers to the law of Scotland and the United States, to their advantage in some respects in comparison with English law. But he has a high regard for the English law of torts, which he thinks most strongly justifies the title of his lectures, "The Rational Strength of English Law."

Book Description
Slapper and Kelly’s The English Legal System explains and critically assesses how our law is made and applied. Trusted by generations of academics and students, this authoritative textbook clearly describes the legal rules of England and Wales and their collective influence as a sociocultural institution. This latest edition of The English Legal System has been substantially updated to include changes to the civil and criminal justice systems, changes in legal funding, developments in European law, and recent applications of human rights law. Key learning features include: useful chapter summaries which act as a good check point for students ‘food for thought’ questions at the end of each chapter to prompt critical thinking and reflection sources for further reading and suggested websites at the end of each chapter to point students towards further learning pathways; an online skills network including how tos, practical examples, tips, advice and interactive examples of English law in action. Relied upon by generations of students, Slapper and Kelly’s The English Legal System is a permanent fixture in this ever-evolving subject.
