I can’t say I would recommend this book for someone who isn’t having to take Constitutional Law, but it was a very helpful tool for studying for finals at the end of the semester. I’m not sure how helpful it would’ve been to read it throughout the semester without the big picture, but it’s a wonderful refresher of all the main concepts you might be tested on. So for my future law students, I would definitely recommend - for anyone else, it’s not the most riveting reading material!
