Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Relating to Trade Unions: Four Lectures Delivered for the Council of Legal Education, Michaelmas Term, 1920 Ing to Trade Unions as is to be found in this book. The belief has been entertained that Trade Unions and their activities are outside the law; it will be dispelled by a glance at the contents. On the other hand, the remarkable fact that in a country Where the rule of law has been predomin ant it has been considered advisable to make im mune from civil liability for tortious acts the vast associations of capital and labour styled Trade Unions, equipped as they are with huge resources in money and men and possessing elaborate organ izations conducted with consummate ability, renders it highly important to know the conditions of such immunity and the legal relations of Trade Unions both to their members and to the community at large. It was partly because of the important nature of the subject that the Council of Legal Education selected, for the first series of evening lectures to be delivered after the War, the subject of the Law Relating to Trade Unions, and asked the author to be the lecturer, and I am satisfied that the reader will find the subject treated in illuminating fashion. The history of the law, so necessary for present day interpretation, will be found to be very completely recorded. The ex position of the law and the discussion of practical difficulties seem to me acute and dispassionate. I can only wish for the book the success attained.
