Jurisprudence

"Jurisprudence" by John W. Salmond is a deep study into the theory and science behind law, created in the early 1900s. Serving as both an introduction for law students and a resource for legal professionals and interested readers, the book looks at different types of jurisprudence including civil, international, and natural law. Salmond focuses on explaining the key ideas that support legal systems, beginning with a wide definition of jurisprudence as the study of all required rules of human behavior, dividing it into different categories. His work strongly emphasizes the role of civil law as the core of legal study and highlights the relationship between legal ideas and how justice is applied, setting the stage for more complex discussions in the field.
