Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a study of American legal procedure in which the author points out that the legal system we know today is the product of a long historical evolution, which can be divided into four stages: customary law, equity, common law, and statutory law. The author traces the growth of each from the earliest periods and discusses the legal and social forces that led from one to the other. The rise of new forms of technology, along with the accompanying new social institutions and value systems, are also analyzed. The author argues that this is not merely an academic exercise but is critical to understanding how legal systems can deal with the problems of an ever-changing society.
