Years ago, Jerzy Starościak, a professor of administrative law, opened one of his books with the statement: “thick books on narrow issues are gone.” This was not true then, and is still not true today. Thick, analytical books will always be needed; enabling lawyers to develop their skills. Nonetheless, it is true that “thick books” have lost their monopoly in the legal discourse, as the discourse itself and its participants have changed.

As in other contemporary legal systems, the concept of “private law” in Poland covers several classical domains. The fundament and core of it are four areas, distinguished as books of the Polish Civil Code (the “CC”): the general part, property law, the law of obligations and inheritance law. Their array corresponds with analogous notions in other legal systems adopting a pandectistic approach towards structuring legal matter.
