Publisher's Synopsis
""An Essay On The Nature And Importance Of Legal Oaths: And On The Awful Consequences Of Perjury, And Of Profane Swearing"" is a book written by John Browne and published in 1840. The book is a philosophical exploration of the nature and significance of legal oaths, as well as an examination of the serious consequences of perjury and profane swearing. Browne argues that oaths are a necessary part of the legal system, as they provide a means of ensuring that witnesses and other parties are truthful in their testimony. He also discusses the moral implications of lying under oath, and the negative effects that perjury and swearing can have on society as a whole. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, and provides a thought-provoking analysis of an important aspect of the legal system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
