Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - OK
The book is in good quality, but I received the wrong edition. Then I refund my money.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - If your prof requires this book, then you should invest in a supplement
This is my second semester of using this book, and it is awful. The authors will introduce concepts as if you already know them without explaining them. Also this book is heavy into referring other books to read to learn more about the concepts, which is not helpful in the least because they fail to even explain anything. If you are assigned this book, invest in a supplement because otherwise you will be lost! The Examples & Explanations is very good, but what supplement you need can vary from professor to professor because each can approach the ideas in different ways.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Book Reseller
Book was clearly marked "not for resale". Good deal but not exactly what I thought I was buying



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Poor Casebook
zanandjayna's review sums up much about how I feel about this casebook.

Other complaints that I had is that the notes/comments sections are quite poor and are usually of little relevance to the case and/or concept you just studied. Also many of the cases have been poorly edited, leaving out key concepts that most prof's expect you to know.

All in all, this is a poor casebook. If you use it i recommend a good supplement.

Review pertains to 5th edition



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Casebook
In comparison to the other casebooks I've been forced to read this year as a 1L, this casebook is probably the best written. Instead of just placing emphasis on the cases and the rules to glean from them, it also highlights key principles and strategies to use as a lawyer in the future(termed lawyering by the authors). I must admit that taking Nathan Crystal's contract class obviously helps in the understanding of the book, but it's a good regardless.
