Item description from seller

'Aberdeen University Studies Number 140.' 1958, first edition, 216pp. Dust jacket bears some wear at extremities and has been price-clipped. Top of front board bears some light marks, gilt to spine and top board bright. Neat and small previous owner's inscription to front endpaper. Content else clean and bright. "The major part of this book is a study in the Roman Law of Contract. It deals with the effect of wrongful conduct (whether fraudulent or neglectful) in the negotiations leading up to a contract . In the second part of the book the Scots Law on the same subject is described. . In the nineteenth century these Roman rules clashed with English rules based on entirely different principles. The writer studies the leading cases and shows how the present uncertain state of the law has resulted from a failure to distinguish between the Roman and English principles." A very good copy.
