Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Analysis Criminal Liability
The principles and illustrations employed are mainly drawn from English Law; but I have not, of course, omitted anything which was to be found in the Corpus J uris, bearing upon my subject: and I am not without hope that I may subsequently enlarge this work by comparing some of the rules, of principle or practice, in bodies of modern continen tal law. Reserving, however, such a treatment of my subject for the future, I have at present purposely avoided the quota tion of many parallels, which will probably occur to my readers, from the Code Napoleon or similar sources.
