''A Leap in the Dark: Or Our New Constitution'' is a book written by Albert Venn Dicey in 1893. The book is a critical analysis of the British constitution and its evolution over time. Dicey argues that the British constitution has been shaped by a series of ''leaps in the dark'' ������� significant changes that were made without a clear understanding of their consequences. He examines the historical development of the constitution and the various reforms that have been introduced over the years. Dicey also discusses the role of the monarchy, the House of Lords, and the House of Commons in the British political system. He argues that the constitution is in need of reform and suggests several changes that could be made to improve its functioning. The book is an important work of constitutional theory and has been influential in shaping debates about constitutional reform in Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
