In a field lacking choice there is no need to choose another

Unfortunately, I did not have the option of choosing to take this class from the co-author Professor Frickey, however, this book more than made up for that.This is an excellent book on a topic which unfortunately receives little attention at most law schools. This book provides lawyers or law students with the analytic skills necessary to be successful at practice and at class. In addition if you do not develop those skills you can always use the plethora of statutory cannons contained in this book.

a laugh riot

This book was an utter delight to read -- I keep it on my bedside table, and give myself the treat of a chapter each night. You wouldn't think that a book on legislation could have that impact, but Eskridge makes the topic fun and riveting, at once.
