| 2. |  | A Civil Action
from Vintage
Price: $10.85
Customer Review:
I'm a law student who read the book for a Civil Procedure class. The book was a little longer than it needed to be perhaps, but it included a lot of great personalities and a compelling litigation story. Not courtroom drama, but the entire drama surrounding a huge suit from start to finish. It's an... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $18.48
Customer Review:
Recently finished this book and I highly commend the author for penning the improbable: a book about law that is incredibly lucid, engaging, and even entertaining.

The book I recieved is in very good shape, however it is not the book I wanted. There was no picture, and I assumed, since it said "new" that it was the newest edition. I recieved the 8th edition of the boook instead of the 9th, which is the one i needed. | 3.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I have become interested lately in the various opinions handed down by the Supreme Court in the Guantanamo habeas corpus cases. I was particularly surprised by the vehemence of the dissenting opinions expressed. This lead me to this book, to find out more. Published in 1979, it documents the... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from Wadsworth Publishing
Price: $121.95
Customer Review:
This book is a great example of the passive exploitation of the college textbook market. Publishers have perfected the art of having an expert slap together material that is not elaborated upon enough for advanced students, or which repackages information that can be obtained cheaply (or freely)... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

from Princeton University Press
Price: $13.57
Customer Review:
Frankly, I was disappointed in the depth of insight and reflection offered in this book. This little volume is essentially a recapitulation of a narrow and shallow view of Constitutional Law and exegesis of the US Constitution that lacks a unifying logic or point of view that underlies it. And, I... more info | 4.0 / 5.0
