Salmond is a scholarly treatise on the theory and science of law written in the early 20th century. This work aims to provide students of law with a foundational understanding of legal principles, while also engaging those already in the field and laypersons interested in legal theory. Salmond explores various branches of jurisprudence, such as civil law, international law, and natural law, setting out to articulate the foundational doctrines that underlie legal systems. The opening of "Jurisprudence" introduces the fundamental concepts of law and jurisprudence as seen by Salmond. He begins by defining jurisprudence broadly as the science of all obligatory rules of human action, which can be divided into civil, international, and natural jurisprudence. In his examination, he highlights how civil law—the law of the land—serves as the backbone of legal study, while emphasizing the interplay between legal principles and the administration of justice. Salmond aims to distinguish between different types of law and their implications, laying a groundwork for the more complex discussions that follow in the treatise.
