Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Quasi-Contracts The reason for the publication of this work is the fact no attempt has hitherto been made to treat exhaustively the topics here considered. The ground covered is indicated sufficiently in the first chapter, dealing with the nature and scope of Quasi-Contracts. In substituting the term "Quasi-Contract" for the term "Contract implied in Law," the writer has only followed the lead of Sir Frederick Pollock and Sir William Anson. While under such leadership the propriety of the substitution does not admit of question, the necessity therefor will soon become apparent to the reader.
