Summary: A lecture, when delivered, dies on the lips of the author and the ears of the audience, but lives much longer if transmuted into print Of course, some Lectures deserves to be stillborn, others earn immortality. It depends. The ordinary run of judges in India, as elsewhere, suffers from the erudite insularity of professionalism, so much so, beyond the profusion of precedents, substantive and procedural laws and adjudicatory techniques the 'robed brethern do not venture May be, even this much of learning is so wide and vast that there is little time left, after the daily drudgery of hearing cases for them, to read or imbibe from other social sciences. And, what is another misfortune, lawyers and judges are not disposed to go to the roots of jurisprudence or delve into sister disciplines like moral and political sciences. This poverty is functionally deplorable because our courts, with their versatile jurisdiction, and our corpus juris, with their spread out into economics, industry and variety of human pursuits, demand, in the administration of justics, a familiarity with other branches of knowledge.
