In terms of it being an informative book, it was exceptional. I think that the author did an incredible job of explaining concepts, and making it very easy to understand. I know that it’s all a lot more complicated, but it really helped breakdown a LOT of things. And it’s interesting because I can think of many things throughout my life that people and myself have faced and it’s been because of laws or how things works.
I also really liked how it also was a mindset change. Not only did it just inform, but I felt like it really encouraged the reader to change how they view law and what it is for. He included a lot of whys and I think that it was really helpful to understand where it’s coming from. And that they aren’t just there randomly, but there for a specific reason to protect people.
This is a good read for everyone, even those not pursuing law!

This title is a little outdated (published in 2009), but I knew that when I bought it. Still, it was a handy introduction to the very basic elements of the legal field. If you are brand new to the field, this would be a good one to read first.

Law is clearly and lucidly explained. However, some of it is outdated, some of it is unnecessary, and other important aspects of the law are omitted entirely. Ripe for an update.

The book tries to present a survey of American law that is too broad and, consequently, too shallow. It might be fine for somebody who has absolutely no comprehension of anything legal, but for the average, intelligent and engaged American, it is not of particular value. The clarity of the explanations tails off as the book progresses, with the first few chapters having the most useful information.

I love law and this still feels like reading a legal document. Like baby’s first law class.
