Notes:

With half-title

" ... it is to-day a generally accepted axiom that the law, as a means of social control administered by the courts, is but an integral part of the broader subject of the relation of the individual to the group ... Jerome Frank, however, is the first, I believe, to attempt to apply the teachings of the new psychology to a comprehensive examination of the whole nature of law and legal thought."--Introduction.
