| 1.The Oxford Guide to United States Supreme Court Decisions from: Oxford University Press, USA April 08, 1999 |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |

|
| As a political scientist, I approached this book with a view towards understanding the social impetus and political environment surrounding a particular court decision. This is an excellent book for such an endeavor. It is probably too superficial for a legal companion but in terms of understanding the issues involved in a case, it is pretty good. Further, the overviews also cite some of the more important precedents cited by the court in a given decison as well as those decisions or statutes ... Read More: |

| As a new law student, I was really intimidated by the Bluebook. But I gotta tell you, after getting the "The User's Guide to Bluebook" three months after law school, I am really starting to feel that I have been tricked out of my money. It is nothing more than 15 sheets stapled together and as one of the reviewers said before me "this book is truely for the bluebook clueless." If you have even the slightest clue of how to use the bluebook, forget this waste of money. But I have to admit, we did spend 15 ... Read More: |

| This second volume of the Laws of the Icelanders has now become available nearly a quarter of a century after Volume I appeared. Sadly, that first volume has now gone out print, although from taking with the publisher, I understand a new edition of Volume I will soon be ready.
Great news, because together these are tremendously important documents. They not only give wonderful insights into the medieval world, but also hold the seeds of much of English law that in turn would find its way into the ... Read More: |

| 6.Legislation: Statutory Interpretation : 20 Questions (Turning Point Series) by: Kent Greenawalt 1999-08 |
||
Average Rating:  >>More Details |
 |
|
| Greenawalt presents a very readable text that I recommend especially as a pre-law school read; offering breadth rather than depth covering the new legal process school superficially. Gives a good broad general forest view of the problems inherent in statutory interpretation, as seen in the current revival of textualism by Justice Scalia. Also discusses various notions of judicial restraint, the legislative process, sources of legislative history, the range of techniques of interpretation like Imaginative Reconstruction ...

| I have been a huge fan of the Nez Perce people and their native land ever since I was a child. I grew up in Boise, Idaho, not too far away from the Nez Perce land, and as a boy I remember listening in fascination as my father told me the story of the sad plight of the non-treaty Nez Perce. Decades later, as an adult who suddenly took an interest in reading, I began studying and researching their story myself.
Of supreme importance to me in learning the story of the Nez Perce people was understanding their land ... Read More: |
