    “Few works have exerted such a profound influence on French legal doctrine. The number of studies it has inspired is considerable. Thus, the first two editions published did not exhaust its success. A reprint was essential. With the author gone, it fell to his friends to undertake this pious task. They did not deem it necessary to add anything to the second edition. Undoubtedly, a few new notes could have presented the interpretations given to certain texts of the Code by its commentators, and indicated the works published since 1901 on the various questions studied in the book; but this would in no way have increased the book's interest. It is not a treatise on legislation which, as such, risks becoming outdated and must be kept up to date; It is an essentially scientific work, valuable for the excellence of its method, the soundness of its erudition, the strength and subtlety of its dialectic, and for its constant concern to adapt the rule of law to the facts. It is a masterpiece which it seemed preferable not to alter. (Excerpt from the preface to the 3rd edition by Henri Capitant).
