Description
Summary:In Anthony D'Amato's writing, two passions merge: law and language. His eloquence - and hence the sheer readability of his writing - is virtually a byword among teachers and students alike. This introduction to law is far from basic in its coverage, yet it never becomes mired in tedious detail or lost in impenetrable fog. It is perhaps the only reader-friendly book available today that truly clarifies the deep and basic concepts of law in general, and American law in particular. It does not simply introduce the concepts; rather, it is an introduction to thinking about the concepts.
