Originally published in 1955, this book describes in a clear and concise way the nature of a Trade Union in England from the legal point of view, the particular aspects of the Law which make it possible for Trade Unions to carry on their activities and the restraints which the Law place on them for the protection of their members and the community. It briefly reviews the history of Trade Union Law, describes the Acts of Parliament which made the modern Trade Union possible and deals with those aspects of the Law which are important for those who have industrial relations with Trade Unions.
