ASSEMBLIES FOR THE LEGAL PROFESSIONAL
Prominent legal writer Rufus Waples (1825-1902) crafted an academic counterpoint to Robert's Rules of Order to outline the rules and procedures for successful deliberative assemblies. Written for legal professionals rather than ordinary civic groups, Waples focused on philosophy and heady legal theory to establish democratic proceedings.
Presented here is a first edition.
