''Opening Address Before The American Social Science Association: On Certain Defects In Our Methods Of Making Laws'' is a book written by Francis Wayland, published in 1881. The book is a transcript of Wayland’s opening address to the American Social Science Association, in which he discusses the flaws in the methods used to make laws in the United States at the time. Wayland argues that there are several issues with the way laws are created, including a lack of clarity in the language used, a lack of consistency in the application of laws, and a lack of attention to the social and economic impacts of laws. He also discusses the need for more collaboration between lawmakers, experts in various fields, and members of the public in order to create more effective and just laws. The book provides a historical perspective on the legislative process in the United States and offers insights into the challenges faced by lawmakers and citizens alike. It is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of American lawmaking and the ongoing debates around the effectiveness and fairness of the legislative process.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
