1.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for a Third Grader, May 10, 2005
This review is from: Criminal Law: Case Studies & Controversies (Hardcover)
This text is terrible. Half of each chapter is nothing but law review articles exploring various debates. The other half of the chapter is a news story version of a case with no decision, followed by a hefty slathering of often random MPC provisions. The space devoted to actually filling the student in on the meat of criminal law varies from nothing to five pages. I will grant that it is enjoyable to read, only because its all fluff and you're done and on to contracts in a half hour. Do yourself a favor and buy Dressler's Understanding Criminal Law if you are required to use Robinson's Text
