Book Description
Excerpt from The Nature of Positive Law It has now in several ways become evident that the idea of Law upon which Austin founded his system of Jurisprudence cannot be accepted as final, but must be treated as only a first approximation, valuable indeed, but defective, and therefore requiring to be supplemented by further enquiry. I was myself led to this opinion by discovering that the Austinian analysis threw so little light upon the real nature of legal Rights as to be of comparatively small value in investigating their substance as opposed to their mere enforcement. This view was pressed upon me again and again as I examined the various Rights of property, and I believe the current system breaks down entirely when we attempt to explain by it the Roman theory of Possession. Being thus led to distrust the results which I had long accepted as final, I found that there were two ways of attempting to correct them - the historical and the analytical.

Book Description
The author theorizes that we can not get a true picture of Jurisprudence if we simply look at the history of English Law. In order to accomplish the goal of science, a review must be done of the principles & distinctions & whether or not they are the true "wants" of the people.
