    "In his work, Desforges focused on thoroughly studying the three major groups of problems posed by the reform. His task was arduous; for, in practice, the various problems of René Rodière have proven to be both more numerous and more delicate than those to which the best oracles had resigned themselves in 1953; the texts having, since then, proven insufficient or unsatisfactory, it is jurisprudence which, particularly with regard to the rules of jurisdiction, has had to gradually build; drawing up an overall picture of such jurisprudence is no easy task." If the task was arduous, it was all the more worthwhile: while the 1953 reform perfectly fulfilled its two essential goals—that of accelerating administrative justice while preserving its full value and that of guaranteeing citizens a two-tiered system of jurisdiction—it had the significant drawback of creating all the problems we have discussed, some of which have, not without reason, perplexed litigants and even their legal counsel. Drawing up a table of the issues raised by the 1953 reform, an assessment of it eight years after its implementation began, thus appeared an indispensable undertaking. It was essential, however, that this table, this assessment, be established accurately and precisely, and, moreover, that it be prepared by a jurist sufficiently versed in the disciplines of public law to consider the problems with certainty and the necessary broad perspective. Mr. Desforges did not fail in the task he had undertaken; As Professor Vedel writes in his preface, “the analysis is thorough, solid, always supported by accurate documentation and informed by legal culture.” This is a book destined to be of great service to all jurists interested in administrative litigation.” (M. Letourneur, RIDC No. 2/1962, p. 457).
