This encyclopedic reference work provides a comprehensive examination of the law, gathering decisions from a wide range of jurisdictions, including the U.S., Hawaii, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Canada, and leading English cases. The author's intent is to provide a consistent and correlated statement of the whole body of the law without duplication across its nearly seventy volumes. This book approaches the law as a constantly evolving body of thought, explaining how individual cases contribute to the development of principles, rules, exceptions, limitations, and qualifications. This approach allows the reader to see both the forest and the trees, understanding the law as a coherent system with historical depth. The author's careful statement, collection, and comparison of decisions afford a valuation of each individual decision, considering cases cited by adversaries as contrary and harmonizing them wherever possible. Not limited to a specific area of law, this reference work is ideal for any legal professional seeking a profound understanding of the American legal system.
