The process of specialization tends, almost inevitably, to narrow the sources from which the rules of any science are drawn; and English law is no exception from this rule.

Summary

This quote suggests that specialization within any field, including English law, often leads to a narrowing down of the sources from which rules are derived. It implies that as professionals become more specialized in their respective areas, their focus may become limited and they may rely on a narrower range of information to establish the principles and guidelines of their field. In the case of English law, this narrowing of sources is seen as part of a broader pattern observed in various fields of knowledge.
