Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Law Relating to Trusts and Trustees In writing this treatise, it has been the Author´s desire to produce a book bearing the same relation to Mr. Lewin´s elaborate work as Lord Justice Farwell´s treatise on Powers bears to that of the late Lord St. Leonards; that is to say, a book of a really practical, but concise, character. The law libraries are rich in great works of reference, the store-houses, so to speak, of the Law; but they are, too often, merely collections of "that codeless myriad, that wilderness of single instances," from which it requires many years of study and experience to extract general principles. That this is so was vigorously expressed by the late Sir James Fitzjames Stephen in the preface to his Digest of the Law of Evidence, where he said: "It becomes obvious, that if a lawyer is to have anything better than a familiarity with indexes, he must gain his knowledge in some other way than from existing books on the subject. No doubt such knowledge is to be gained. Experience gives by degrees, in favourable cases, a comprehensive acquaintance with the principles of the law with which a practitioner is conversant. He gets to see that it is shorter and simpler than it looks, and to understand that the innumerable cases, which at first sight appear to constitute the law, are really no more than illustrations of a comparatively small number of principles."
