Excerpt from The First Principles of Law The aim of this book is to set out in as plain and simple a manner as possible, and' in what the author ventures to think 18 a somewhat more philosophical arrangement than the usually accepted one of Blackstone, the most general and elementary principles of the law. It was written primarily for the use of the author's students beginning the study of the law; but it is hoped that it may be of service to students of law elsewhere, as well as possibly to readers who without intending to become lawyers wish to get a knowledge in outline of the nature and methods of legal science. It is not designed to take the place of the laiger and more complete treatises with which students generally, begin the1r legal studies, but rather to be used in connec tion with them: and for this reason many subjects have been omitted, such as Agency, Partnership and the greater part of the Law of Persons, which, though 01 the greatest interest and importance in themselves, may still be looked upon as being, so to speak, detachable from the main fabric of legal principles and affording merely special applications of rules and principles which the student ought to understand before he comes to the study of those special branches.

Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of the Law of Evidence N preparing this Edition for the Press we have not departed from the lines on which the previous Editions were based. We have considered all the cases upon the subjects dealt with in this Book which have been reported since the last Edition down to April, 1904, and have incorporated such of them as we deemed of sufficient importance in this Edition, and have also incorporated a few cases reported since that date. We have eliminated certain matters mainly of historical interest, and have other wise compressed the present Edition, so that in spite of the very considerable amount of new matter introduced into this Edition it will be found to be shorter by several pages than the previous Edition.

Excerpt from The Heart of Blackstone: Or Principles of the Common Law The practical value of this book is not con fined to lawyers and students at law, but the earnest and intelligent searcher after knowl edge in other fields, no less than the members of the legal and other learned professions, cannot' fail to derive accurate and profitable instruction from its study.

Clarence Thomas is one of the most vilified public figures of our day. To date, however, his legal philosophy has received only cursory treatment. First Principles provides a portrait of Thomas based not on the justice's caricatured reputation, but on his judicial opinions and votes, his scholarly writings, and his public speeches. The paperback edition includes a provocative new Afterword by the author bringing the book up to date by assessing Justice Thomas's performance, and the reaction to his decisions, during the last five years.

Excerpt from Principles of the Law of Contract I have little to say in offering the eleventh edition of this book to the public. The preface to the sixth edition, which I leave as it was written in 1891, will explain, to any one who may be interested in the matter, the origin and purpose of the book. I have endeavored in the eleventh edition to bring the book up to date, to introduce new authorities with the least possible enlargement of the text, to simplify passages that seemed obscure, and to preserve the character of an ele mentary treatise. I have again to thank my friend Mr. Graham-harrison, of All Souls College and of Lincoln's Inn, for valuable help in the suggestion of improvements, in advice on points of difficulty, in correction, and in revision.

Excerpt from The Principles of Natural and Politic Law VI. The principal faculty of the foul, that which confiitutes the fundamental part ofits being, and ferves, as it were, for its intrinfrc light, is the underftanding. We may define it that faculty or power, by which the mind perceives, and forms ideas of things, in order to'come at the knowledge of truth. Truth may be taken here in two fignifications; either for the nature, {late and mutual relations of things or for the ideas agreeable to this nature, {late and relations. 'to have a knowledge therefore of truth, is to per ceive things foch as they are in themfelves, and to form ideas concerning them conformable to their nature.
