Good Introduction to Criminal Law,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Criminal Law (Hardcover)
I feel that this book is a good introduction to criminal law. While it is true that it may not go into great detail about the subject, I do not believe that it was the author's intent to write such a book. Samaha provides the information in a way that students that are not law students can read and understand. When reviewing a textbook it is important to consider who the author's intended audience is. One cannot blame the text or the author if a college or university picks the wrong book for a certain level of class.

This review is from: Criminal Law (Hardcover)
Great for those who like to read about criminal law or those who are still in school involving a career related with criminal law. Presents many court cases that help to explain all the chapters material.

Criminal Law,
This review is from: Criminal Law (Hardcover)
So far the book has good case law examples. The problem like every other text book is that it is not state specific. I wished law classes were more specific to the state that you work in. That's not the books fault though.
