Thank you for everything, Mr. Glannon. You are a good person.

To the rest of you: if you ever go to law school, read the Examples & Explanations. Maybe even read them before you go. You won't regret it.

Unlike with the Contracts book, I felt that this one didn't really help me all that much to prepare for finals.

Granted that I didn't go over all the chapters (because they were not covered in my torts class), I still found this edition educational and entertaining. Too bad Professor Glannon is only an expert in Torts & Civ Pro or I would read his EEs of other subjects as well.

Glannon is a lifesaver - if you have torts, and you aren't automatically assigned to read this as a supplement, go out and buy it.
