5.0 out of 5 stars
Exceptional and Comprehensive,
By Bruce A. Pistiner (RANDOM LAKE, WISCONSIN, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Essentials of Sports Law (Hardcover)
I first encountered Professor Wong at his presentation at the Sport Lawyer's Association. He is insightful and thorough in his approach. Upon extensive review of his new comprehensive text, I am even more impressed, and know that it is an outstanding fit for incorporating into a challenging and cutting-edge curriculum. His research is impeccable, and the segmented layout is most suitable to both traditional and cohort models. Everyone in the field should have a copy on their shelf! Professor Corinne Kaplan, J.D.
