    The general work on administrative law published by Mr. W. had a somewhat turbulent publishing history between 1936, the date of its first edition, and 1969, the date of its last. The first four editions (between 1936 and 1946) appeared under the title "Manual of Administrative Law." From the fifth edition (published in 1950) onward, it was called "Elementary Treatise on Administrative Law." The sixth edition, published in 1951, was virtually identical to the previous one, apart from a few changes in presentation. Several updates were subsequently produced (46 pages in 1952; 14 pages in 1955). However, in 1957, for the 7th edition, the title changed again to “Administrative Law.” It was updated in 1959 (8th ed.) and published for the last time in 1963. The author finally published a “Précis de droit administratif” (Summary of Administrative Law) in 1969. This time, the change of publisher (Montchrestien instead of Sirey) resulted in a radically revised text, more concise in some respects (administrative institutions), and more developed in others (public services, administrative contracts). Our copy is the first edition of the “Elementary Treatise.” In his foreword, the author states that this edition “bears the mark of a complete revision of each chapter; the most significant changes concern the resurgence of decree-laws, the interpretation of administrative acts and the assessment of their legality… acts subject to appeal for abuse of power… general concepts regarding public services… the crisis of concession contracts… the criteria for administrative contracts.” The author indicates that he was unable to address the law of civil servants and that of the public domain, but instead created an entirely new section devoted to the management of public services, and in particular to the concession of public services. In our opinion, this is the best edition.
