Business Law textbook
I haven't actually used this product in class yet as I'm just getting my books together for the fall semester but I have looked it over and it looks to be very informative of business law with examples and definitions etc. I can't however say it is or will be a pleasure to read I bought it because it's required for my business law class not because I wanted to.
For the Thrill of It: Leopold, Loeb, and the Murder That Shocked Chicago

Simon Baatz
Harper
, 2008
Beautifully written - Reads like In Cold Blood
Baatz meticulously researches a fascinating subject and then tells the story in beautifully written prose. It is not an exaggeration to compare his book favorably with Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, i.e. I couldn't put it down! For The Thrill Of It is the best book ever written on the subject matter and is one of the most riveting non-fiction crime books of our time.

a home library must
If you do legal work at home, this dictionary is essential to have there. As a law student, I have unlimited access to the Westlaw version of Black's, but there are a great deal of missing entries in that format. I have literally never tried to look up a word in the hardbound version without finding it--not so with the online or pocket versions. It is also an excellent citation source for basic ...

Naval gazinf but surprisingly excellent
This was chosen for our book club and I was reticent as I do not enjoy books on religion and I was worried that she'd be very preachy, thankfully, she's not. Yes, she does an astounding amount of naval gazing but she is self-depracating and quite humorous. I loved, loved, loved the first section in Italy and so agreed with many of her observations, Pray was hard since she's just so determined ...

Helpful
This was quite helpful while taking a journalism course. It takes a few minutes to understand the layout of the book to lookup things, but once you get it, it's easy. I think this book helped raise me a letter grade in my course. Anyone taking a journalism course with a strict professor or planning on entering journalism should get a copy. My textbook had a reference in it, but it was ...

Good textbook...
I'm finding my torts class difficult at times, so I'm glad to have this book for my text. It has a lot of examples to illustrate each concept, which is helping me grasp all the ideas pretty well. Also, the book is not nearly as expensive as a lot of textbooks, so I feel I'm getting my money's worth out of it.

Outstanding
This is my favorite book of the year. It combines all of my interests - Jewish history, family struggles, impact of culture, and so much more. The author spent her early years in Egypt and the family was forced out by anti-semitism. While in Egypt, they lived a glamorous life for many years, but with a father whose moods ranged from loving to abusive. From there they entered a generation of ...

The Official LSAT SuperPrep

Law School Admision Council
, 2007
Outstanding official prep materials from LSAT
The LSAT is sufficiently idiosyncratic in both the form and substance of its content that studying with anything other than the official, exams released by the LSAT board (LSAC) runs the risk of doing more harm than good. The problem with such advice until recently is that before the release of this book a couple of years ago, none of the official materials provided anything more than an answer ...

The work cites computerized legal research in WESTLAW and LEXIS. Relevant international legal citations are listed. The applicable United States Code is cited by Title ...
