For College Law Course

This book is actually split into two parts. Sometimes you can buy the parts individually. For my college, you needed a different half for different courses. I suggest just buying both in one book. It makes for a nice reference. Each section has a short part about the topic and then various cases, their backrounds, and Justice opinions. If you have a hard time decifering the opinions, I suggest having a quick reference handy as well. I would also suggest limiting yourself to one notecard per case for note-taking. This will keep you focused as it limits how much you can write. Sum up the case facts, summarize the decision, and write why various sides supported their decisions. Any longer notes, and you may be writing more than necessary. There are plenty of cases for each example, some of which overlap in the first and second half.
