You would have been informed long before I posted the call for volunteers, but Marquise's query forced my hand. The mention was made with the assurance that you'd also read it, and the assumption that we'd discuss it if you needed further details.

As for the book, I re-read it when you first broached the subject of the committee again, and since there have been other concerns occupying my mind. The possibility that you'd wish to borrow it hadn't occurred to me. Regardless, one doesn't need a book on intergalactic law to make a study of foreign law. Even on our own world, the array of judicial systems is widely varied, and basic information on the laws of most countries is readily available.
