Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Summary Principles of the Law: Simple Contracts
That works like these tend to lessen the difficulties experienced in mastering and comprehending the study of the Law must, I think, on all hands, be admitted; but in the case of foreigners - Students coming, as so many do now, from India, Japan, the Cape, and other distant parts, and who have to con tend against the very serious obstacle of learning a science in a language foreign to their own - their use is rendered highly valuable. The Student can there read in one short Rule, clearly and concisely stated, followed by carefully chosen cases to illustrate it and to impress it on his memory, and, not unfrequently, further explained by means of a Note or Sub-rule, what in other works, differently arranged, he finds extended perhaps over some dozen pages. Having thus read and learnt the Rule, and seen its applica tion by the cases inserted to exemplify it, he is in a position to increase that knowledge by the perusal of larger and more exhaustive treatises.
