If anything, many of the points Llewellyn argued in these Lectures were on the dawning horizon then but are in their mid-day fullness now.
Cases are still the best tools for exploring the interaction of the law with individual questions, and the essence of what law students must learn to do has persisted.
Moreover, the steps of a legal dispute, from arguments to verdict, to opinion, to review, to appeal, to opinion have changed little in their significance or their substance.
Although laws change every year, disputes between people haven\'t altered all that much since Llewellyn first penned The Bramble Bush, and the process of moving from private dispute to legal conflict still follows the patterns he described.
Llewellyn introduces students to what the law is, how to read cases, how to prepare for class, and how justice in the real world relates to the law.
