Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Law Relating to Engineering: A Course of Six Lectures Delivered at Caxton Hall, Westminster, in 1910-1911, Before the Society of Engineers (Incorporated), And the Junior Institution of Engineers (Incorporated) The profession of an Engineer involves much more than mere engineering knowledge or even executive skill. In a large proportion of the matters in which he is consulted he has the responsibility of giving advice, and that advice often relates to acts in which the rights of third parties are directly or indirectly involved. This consideration alone would make it desirable that he should have a sound knowledge of such branches of the law as bear upon the questions he has to resolve. But his need of clear legal conceptions does not depend on this alone. He has not only to administer, but often to frame, contracts of a character which, beyond doubt, renders them the most complicated of any that have to be interpreted and pronounced upon by our Courts, and their nature is such that he can only pass on the responsibility to professional lawyers to a small extent. The rest deals with matters so technical that it must remain in his hands. In countries where law is embodied in codes it is both easy and customary for the various classes of the professional and commercial world to know almost by heart the portions that directly relate to their callings. But in England, where we prefer the elasticity of principles to a servile adherence to any verbal embodiment of them, the task is more difficult and less frequently accomplished. And yet the English system of case law is in my opinion easier and safer for the sensible layman than a codified system would be.
