Summary, etc. In The Quest for Security: Employees, Tenants, Wives Tony Honoré examines the extent to which English law provides security for the weaker party in three of the most central relationships of their lives. Are the "common people" of England, whose interests Miss Hamlyn, the foundress of the series of Lectures which bears her name, had at heart, better protected than their counterparts in France and Germany? Further, is protection of the weaker party achieved at too great a cost? Is it the case that, paradoxically, the weak are better served by giving more security to the strong? Finally, in a postscript, the author argues that England, unlike France and Germany, does not possess a genuine legal culture; in particular, it lacks a legislative culture.<br/><br/>This wide-ranging and lively study, which formed the basis for the Hamlyn Lectures for 1982, will be of absorbing interest to teachers and students in law and the social sciences. In addition legislators, administrators and the general public will value its original and thought-provoking approach.
