The Calcutta Law Journal. Oct. Nov. & Dec. 1st. 1931

1931

The book is quite up-to-date and takes note of the recent legislative changes regarding such impotant questions as the succession of daughters and their children the right of inheritar.ce of sisters under the Mitakshara law removal of the disability lunacy and idiocy restrictions on child marriages exclusiveness of the gains of scientific learning and so forth. [...] The value of the book is to be judged not by its comparatively small dimension but by the depth of the research the learned authohas made and by the vigour and soundness of his reasonings with which he defends the legal profession and :efutes th.. [...] The second chapter of the book is devoted to the delineation of the history and constitution of the English Bar which we think will supply a historical background for the study and proper appreLiation of the Indian Bar Councils Act. [...] The next four chapters deals with the evolution of the legal profession during the early days of British rule and discusses the function and activities of the lawyers in relation to the constitution and powers of the Courts then prevailing. [...] Then the learned author gives the Bar Committee report and the chief provisions of the Bar Councils Act and concludes with a criticism on the inadequacy of the provisions made and asserts that a lack of confidence in the legal profession is really responsible for the extremely small dose of autonomy granted to the Bar Councils for the management of their own affairs.
