Excellent introduction to the Federal Rules of Evidence. The best part of this book is the case examples and Best's analyses of them. To the point, clear, and comprehensive.

Very helpful in understanding and developing concepts of evidence. I love that, unlike casebooks, the examples in the study aid come with detailed explanations (hence the title). Also discusses in brief landmark cases in certain areas of evidence.

A must read if you want to be the most obnoxious Law & Order viewer ever.
