A provocative, accessible, and cleverly illustrated.
Illustrated lessons summarize landmark cases and illuminate a fascinating range of questions, including: - What is the difference between honesty and truthfulness? - Why is circumstantial evidence often better than direct evidence? - How does one find the proper sources to substantiate a legal argument? - Why do states deliberately pass unconstitutional laws? - How can testimony from a hostile witness be helpful? Written by an internationally experienced attorney and law instructor, 101 Things I Learned(r) in Law School is a concise, highly readable resource for law students, graduates, professionals, and anyone else fascinated--or confused--by our legal system.
From the fundamentals of effective argument to the principles, structures, and assumptions underlying our legal system, 101 Things I Learned(r) in Law School makes the impenetrable clear and the complex understandable.
Not because it contains the details of case law, but because it teaches them how to think like a lawyer.
