 | The Path Of The Law By Oliver Wendell Holmes ISBN: 9781936041961 Published: 2011 Number of Pages: 26 Binding: Paperback |
Pricing & Availability:Additional Details: Product Type: Book Publisher: Simon & Brown Description: When we study law we are not studying a mystery but a well-known profession. We are studying what we shall want in order to appear before judges, or to advise people in such a way as to keep them out of court. The reason why it is a profession, why people will pay lawyers to argue for them or to advise them, is that in societies like ours the command of the public force is intrusted to the judges in certain cases, and the whole power of the state will be put forth, if necessary, to carry out their judgments and decrees. | |
