Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Doctrine of the Separation of Powers and Its Present-Day Significance
This volume of lectures by Chief Justice Vanderbilt is the only modern comprehensive statement and analysis of the constitutional doctrine of the separation of governmental powers. As such, it should be required reading for all students of government or law. This study of the present significance of separated powers together with Professor Sharp's historical review1 form a complete survey of the topic by two outstanding legal scholars. An introduction is added only to give a rigorous definition of the doctrine in its constitutional context.
