โœฆ Synopsis

The first textbook on Scottish legal history from the genesis of Scots law to the Union, written from a legal perspective

From the roots of a law that applied to all subjects of the Scottish King to the 1707 Union with England, this new legal history textbook explores the genesis, evolution and enduring influence of early Scots law. Discover how and why Scots law come into being, how was it used in dispute resolution during the medieval and early modern periods and how its authority developed over the centuries.

Key Features

  • The chapters have been road-tested with legal history students in the School of Law at the University of Aberdeen
  • The textbook has been developed with input from legal history lecturers at a number of Scottish universities
  • Complex legal history is presented through examples and anecdotes, to help students to engage with and understand the material
  • Material is divided into easily digestable chunks, arranged from the perspective of legal history (rather than political, social or economic history)
