MOZLEY & WHITELEY’S LAW DICTIONARY (10th Edition) edited by E. R. Hardy Ivamy, LL.B., Ph.D., LL.D., Barrister (M.T.), Emeritus Professor of Law, University College London. Butterworths, London (1988, vii and 511 pp.). Paperback £6.50. This is a much larger edition of what was formerly a more manageable and convenient pocket-sized dictionary. The expansion of the law, particularly of the statute book, and the inclusion of hitherto omitted entries underly the growth of this book. The extension of shipping law expressions (e.g., by adding “despatch money”, “the frustration clause” and “narrow channel”) is particularly noted by the editor. A specialist selection of definitions extracted from the whole of the English law will inevitably have some limitations and the book therefore functions basically as an introduction. Thus, the definition of “fiduciary estate” remains but, remarkably in modern times, there is no attempt to define the increasingly important concept of “fiduciary”. And the definition of “restitution” is conservatively restricted, concealing significance of an important source of modern commercial law and of the common law generally. The curious and probably unnecessary inclusion of a list of law reports is continued (under the heading “reports”). What might be more useful for a maritime lawyer would be the perhaps frustrating task of adding reliable explanations of phrases such as “whether in berth or not”.
