Our Emperors Have No Clothes (Classic Reprint)

More than ten years have elapsed since the appearance of the last Edition, and there have been many important decisions upon the subject matter of this treatise during that period. The decision in Colls v. Home and Colonial Stores Ltd. and the succeeding cases has necessitated the re-writing of the chapter on Light; and the present Edition also contains considerable additions to other parts of the work. So far as was possible consistently with retaining the now familiar and time-honoured framework of the treatise, the Editor has adhered to the system of working the new cases into the text, instead of referring to them only in the footnotes. The Editor is conscious that the presence of brackets, in the text is not free from objection to the reader. In view, however, of the great authority of the Author stext, and the number of editions in which it has been distinguished from the additions of the various Editors, the system of enclosing all such additions within square brackets has been adhered to. The notes to bracketed portions of the text are not bracketed. Every case is dated.
