The book also contains “Check Your Understanding,” “Big Think,” and “Did You Know?” text boxes designed to enable students to engage in self-assessment, along with a user-friendly page layout. A comprehensive set of high-quality PowerPoint slides covering all principal cases is also available to adopters. and Aspen Aloud is a series of narrated audio summaries for legal studies in 1L or 2L subject Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Corporations and Other Business Entities, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Evidence, Property, and Torts.

Helpful for my studies

[lore · Rating 4 out of 5]

maybe it's because torts tends to be one of the more interesting classes of 1L (& probably my favorite 1L class) but i actually liked this book! i think that the layout was really organized & made a lot of sense for the way & order in which torts is taught. the writing was engaging & interesting & was able to keep my attention even through hours & hours of reading. i also think that unlike a lot of other law casebooks, this one really broke down concepts & explained them really well instead of putting the emphasis on making the text as convoluted & confusing as possible. the only thing was the copious amounts of notes after cases but honestly, i even kind of didn't mind those because they gave extra background, updates, similar cases, & exceptions that may have been extra but were at least interesting.

will never forget palsgraf!
