Book Overview

I WISH I KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW!

Don't get to the end of your law school career muttering these words to yourself! Take the first step toward building a productive, successful, and perhaps even pleasant law school experience--read this book!

Written by students, for students, Law School Confidential has been the "must-have" guide for anyone thinking about, applying to, or attending law school for more than a decade. And now, in this newly revised third edition, it's more valuable than ever.

This isn't the advice of graying professors or battle-scarred practitioners long removed from law school. Robert H. Miller has assembled a blue-ribbon panel of recent graduates from across the country to offer realistic and informative firsthand advice about what law school is really like.

This updated edition contains the very latest information and strategies for thriving and surviving in law school--from navigating the admissions process and securing financial aid, choosing classes, studying and exam strategies, and securing a seat on the law review to getting a judicial clerkship and a job, passing the bar exam, and much, much more. Newly added material also reveals a sea change that is just starting to occur in legal education, turning it away from the theory-based platform of the previous several decades to a pragmatic platform being demanded by the rigors of today's practices.

Law School Confidential is a complete guide to the law school experience that no prospective or current law student can afford to be without.

Insightful and humorous

In Search of Stupidity gets its title from the classic, albeit infamous business book In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America's Best-Run Companies, by Tom Peters and Robert Waterman. In Search of Excellence quickly became a best-seller when it came out in 1988 and launched a new era of management consultants and business books. But in 2001, Peters admitted that he falsified the underlying data. Librarians have been slow...

Learn From The Mistakes of Others

In writing this book, Chapman has done us the service of collecting over 20 years worth of corporate blunders. As such, MBAs entering the software industry would be well advised to read this book and save themselves from making the same strategic errors that led to the demise of earlier pioneers. This is a man who, in the 1980s, wore those blue Adidas running shoes with the cool yellow stripes. This is a man who sat in the...

A page-turning history of the PC's first 25 years

In Search of Stupidity is a light-hearted and witty history of the PC's first 25 years. At its core is an amusing, and well argued, premise that the monopolies of Microsoft and Intel were built on the stupidity of their competitors, as much as the technical and marketing prowess of Bill Gates' and Andy Grove's companies.Rick Chapman is something of a marketing guru having published an industry bible. After working at most...

He who does not learn from stupidity...

In 1982, Tom Peters told the world about how excellent companies were turning around the US economy. What Peters failed to recognize was that many of the companies that he was looking at weren't actually "excellent" but were in fact huge clunking dinosaurs that were producing buggy whips in the age of the automobile. New, smaller companies came around and ate the lunch of the big "excellent" guys and then proceeded to make...

Great reading for the beach - or the boardroom....

If you've been wondering what happened to the supposedly technology-driven economy over the last few years, and some of the much-touted players that you no longer hear of, Rick Chapman's book is a must-have as you head out to vacation.In 20 years of consulting I've read a lot of books on strategy, marketing, impact of technology and the histories of companies and the captains of industry. But few have both the sweep and simultaneously...
