In the Preface to the 1954 First Edition, cited in this the Fourth, Witkin states the philosophy behind the Treatises which guide the publication:

CRITICAL -- Case law is examined on principle, exposing conflicts of decision, indicating trends.

SELECTIVE -- Important and controversial problems are emphasized, with leading cases apt in illustration and review.

PRACTICAL -- Organized to present procedural steps chronologically, with reference and accumulation of practice suggestions from decisions.

COMPREHENSIVE -- Coverage of every branch of procedure, with reference to substantive law.

READABLE -- Presented plainly and concretely. {Of course, it is "law" that is being presented -- innately gray areas.}
