Book Reviews of Examples & Explanations: Civil Procedure, Sixth Edition
Book Review: Excellent supplement for Law Students
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this book to help me with my Civil Procedures course. I am a first year law student, and I am in an evening program. I work a regular job in Retail Bank Management, and juggle school, hobbies, and family, so my time is precious to me. I don't have time to spend sorting through supplements and slogging through information that seems to carry me further and further from understanding what I need to 1) have good input in class discussions, 2) not make a fool out of myself when called on randomly to discuss cases, and 3) do well on my exams.
This supplement has been an incredible resource for me. As the first six weeks of class slipped by, I found myself feeling a little lost in Civil Procedures. Two weeks before the midterm I was floundering. I had briefed every assigned case, outlined course reading, and worked problems that our class tutor posted on TWEN. I was still slightly confused. Then I bought this book. Without doing all of the work, this would have never been useful to me. So please don't think that this supplement will be your "cliff's notes" for Civil Procedure. However, if you just need extra help, Glannon delivers like gang-busters. This book is well organized, easy to follow (once you have done your homework), and most of all it is effective. Having just taken the mid-term, I have nothing but rave reviews for how this book enhanced my preparation for that exam.
Overall, I highly recommend this book.
