Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Americans are fascinated by the law. And why not. The law is important, intellectually challenging, and sometimes outrageous. Consider some cases that have made front-page news: Stella Liebeck, who bought a cup of coffee at McDonald’s and spilled it on herself, was awarded $2. 7 million in damages. #2 The law has pervaded our society from the beginning. It is difficult for most people to learn about the law, but they can learn something about it by taking Law 101. #3 The first year of law school is the universal training ground for lawyers. While law students and lawyers all understand the same law in principle, they understand it in different ways. Law is not in the books, but in the interactions of judges, lawyers, and ordinary citizens. #4 Law is not secret. It is a reflection of life, and life is complicated. Therefore, legal problems defy simple solutions.
