Huffing chloroform is less soporific than the content of this casebook. I also find it extremely odd how the cases are edited, they take all of the analysis from the opinion and leave you with the most boring history lessons ever discussed. Do yourself a favor and just use Westlaw to read the cases. Additionally, the authors are discernibly biased toward the left and prefer editorializing on their political agenda to actually providing rules or allowing students to know the opinions of the courts.

Way too long; I could write a more appropriate textbook if someone paid my salary for five months (maybe four).

The organization of this casebook is just awful.
