He has excelled in both teaching and scholarly writing, some of it in interdisciplinary collaboration. He has contributed significantly to the legal and social aspects of labour-management relations by his writings, which he has enriched by wide experience as an arbitrator. This has led him into the broader area of administrative law in general, to which he has brought new historical insights which will be helpful to the courts in establishing standards for review of administrative decisions. His study of and writings on the legal profession have broken new ground in the examination of a self-governing profession.
