Review:
"I like the fact that it does not use 'legal' language to the extent that students feel they are reading a foreign language text."
"Readability is a plus for this text. One of the reasons I prefer this text is the case selection and format; they have done a good job on this point."
"It is an enjoyable law book to read and easy to comprehend. I asked several students to read the chapter on agency and they liked it and found it intellectually stimulating."
"The case problems are very well selected. This is another strong feature of this text and the mix of case problems in terms of length, complexity, date decided, etc., is quite good."
