Kenneth G. C. Reid, Reinhard Zimmermann (jurist)
Oxford University Press, 2000 - 552 páginas
Law in Scotland has a long history, uninterrupted either by revolution or by codification. This work is the first detailed and systematic study in the field of Scottish private law. It takes key topics from the law of obligations and the law of property and traces their development from earliest times to the present day.
