The Master'sTools
Fine tools. In the hands of a

master they can shape a
quality instrument, bring life

to a slab of stone or coax a

new rose from a handful of
earth.

You find masters in every
profession. They're the ones

at the top or on their way.
They've mastered their craft

and the tools they use.

For an attorney, those tools

are on the shelves of his
library.

That's where you'll find

Corpus Juris Secundum. The
last word in legal
encyclopedias. The first place
to look.

A contemporary statement
of American law derived from

reported cases and legislation,
Corpus Juris Secundum is the
authority recognized by every

American judiciary.

Corpus Juris Secundum®
... for the masters.

You can't master your craft
until you master the tools.
