René David, the distinguished French scholar, first published his book "The Principal Legal Systems of Modern Times" in 1964. It gained widespread acclaim and was immediately translated into 11 languages.

Since then, it has been repeatedly reprinted, with revisions by Camille Jauffray-Spinosi, and has become the foundation for the development of comparative law, which studies all aspects of the legal landscape of the modern world.

David René objectively described the legal systems in force worldwide during his time. He also proposed a classification, combining legal, technical, and ideological criteria. Ultimately, he identified three main "families of law":

- Romano-Germanic (Continental);
- Anglo-American (common law);
- Communist.

These studies continue to be influential today, and their study will be useful not only for law students at universities but also for professors and lawyers dedicated to improving the law.
