A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This volume, consisting wholly of cases, has been prepared as the basis for a course of instruction in the use of the reports. The student is expected to study the cases minutely, to state the facts and the results, to discover dicta, to determine the precise doctrine and weight of each decision, to compose head-notes, to compare and criticise the cases, and to compile a digest. The cases have been selected chiefly because of supposed fitness for such a course of itudy, a course intended not to teach any one branch of law, but simply to teach by practice the methods and principles adapted to the use of authorities in all branches. Yet an attempt has also been made to present cases that discuss or apply valuable principles of law. For the purpose of comparing cases with one another, either with the intention of discovering how law changes or with the intention of discovering how decisions supplement one another and eventually develop a rounded doctrine, it is obviously useful to place in juxtaposition cases bearing on identical or related topics.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
