Synopsis
This Book Attempts To Bring Greater Theoretical Clarity To The Often Murky Topic Of Custom By Showing That Custom Must Be Analysed Into Two More Logically Basic Concepts: Convention And Habit. Customs Are Conventional Habits And Habitual Conventions. Once We Have A Clearer Understanding Of Custom We Can Better Grasp The Many Roles That Custom Plays In A Legal System.
