Summary

This book grew out of an experiment in Anglo-American legal study, in which distinguished American and English jurists studied the appellate courts of each other's countries, with a view to improving such courts in their own. Professor Karlen describes in detail the tribunals observed, and in a final chapter compares and contrasts appellate procedures in each country.
