""The Genius of the Common Law"" is a collection of lectures delivered by renowned legal scholar Frederick Pollock at Columbia University in 1912. The book explores the history and development of the common law system, which is the legal system used in England and many other countries around the world. Pollock examines the unique features of the common law system, including its reliance on precedent and the role of judges in interpreting and applying the law. He also discusses the relationship between common law and statutory law, and the ways in which the common law has adapted to changing social and economic conditions over time. Throughout the book, Pollock offers insights into the intellectual and cultural foundations of the common law, and argues that its enduring legacy lies in its ability to balance tradition with innovation and to provide a flexible framework for resolving disputes and promoting justice.
