Summary:
This legal treatise by John Erskine, Esq., of Carnock, is a comprehensive work on the law of Scotland, structured in four books and modeled on Sir George Mackenzie's 'Institutions of that Law.' The second volume delves into obligations, contracts, and moveable rights in Scottish law, explaining their nature, types, and legal implications. It provides a detailed comparison between real and personal rights and explores the distinctions among natural, civil, and mixed obligations. The text aims to clarify the foundational principles of Scottish law for students, legal practitioners, and scholars. Written by a former professor of Scots Law at the University of Edinburgh, this work is a significant contribution to the understanding of legal doctrines and their application within Scotland.
