Really great seller, prompt email response to question about item before purchase, and fast non-overnight shipping!

I am only a 1L but this book was recommended to me by a practicing attorney. This book is great for a more in depth analysis of topics and concepts discussed in class.

This hornbook is the master work on substantive criminal law, frequently cited by all courts, including the United States Supreme Court. It analyzes all the questions that are not peculiar to a particular state. Where different views are presented by various states, that's covered. The hornbook weighs in on questions where there are differences of opinion, in numerous references to the "better view," without denigrating the positions that are not designated as the "better view." Anyone who orders this hornbook will be dazzled by the clarity with which it addresses a complex subject: substantive law.
