""The Constitution of Friendly Societies: Upon Legal and Scientific Principles, Exemplified by the Rules and Tables of the Southwell Friendly Institution"" is a book written by John Thomas Becher in 1829. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the principles and rules that govern friendly societies, which were mutual aid organizations that provided financial assistance to their members in times of need.

The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history and purpose of friendly societies, the legal framework that governs them, and the financial and actuarial principles that underpin their operations. It also includes practical advice on how to establish and manage a friendly society, as well as examples of the benefits that members can expect to receive.
