A treatise is a scholarly, legal publication written on a particular subject matter. A print treatise may consist of a single volume or multi-volumes. Treatises are often 'practice-based' and may include forms. Some treatises, such as Nutshells and Hornbooks, provide a general overview of an area of law and are often used by students as study aids.
