"Ideally suited for a one-semester course, this casebook contains all the essential decisions without being overwritten. It is completely up-to-date, containing the latest decisions from the United States Supreme Court, as well as problems based on important lower-court decisions. The authors actively seek to place students in situations that they are likely to encounter in practice, and asks students to think about how they might handle those situations. The authors have added a significant number of new problems. They have also added important cases from the United States Supreme Court's recent terms."--Publisher's website.
