The Family and the Law

To most laymen the law is a mysterious thing--hedged about with tradition and complicated terminology. In this book the author gives an interpretation of legal rules and principles in simple language, dwelling especially on those aspects of law that are of greatest concern for everyday life--guardianship, adoption, marriage and divorce, juvenile delinquency, and contracts governing landlord and tenant.
