Better of the Sum & Substance,
By
This review is from: Goode's Sum and Substance Audio Set on Evidence, 2d (Audio CD)
The last reviewer must have held too high an expectation for an oral treatment of a legal subject. I am a self-help person and have gotten about (9) of the Sum & Substance audio series to learn law for my own self-improvement. The purpose of the series is to give you the general picture- kind of like the law outlines used in courses. It is not a full treatment. I found this lecture was well done in giving you the "substance" and conveying knowledge. It passed on understanding that is not gotten from books. Some titles in the series are better than others. This one is the better and rates almost up with the tapes by Finz, Miller, and Dressler. I even found Juergensmeyer, Thomas, and Whaley to be OK. I didn't like Cox and Berring though- Cox seemed to be reading a book and Berring never went into depth- i didn't come away with much. I mention in case you are considering buying other titles in this series.

I am not sure why others disliked this program so much...,

This review is from: Goode's Sum and Substance Audio Set on Evidence, 2d (Audio CD)
I think this is one of the single best study aids out there. As another reviewer put it - it provides understanding of perhaps the law's most confusing subject - hearsay. You cannot get that kind of explanation from any book I have read, and I have read several. I also really liked the mnemonic devices Professor Goode used. I had no trouble memorizing the many hearsay exceptions, theories of impeachment, character evidence rules and so on. I unequivocally recommend this book. I think it gave me a huge edge on my classmates.

CD's are good except he talks a bit too fast!! Actually, he talks very fast, so you might have to spend plenty of time pressing rewind on your CD player to catch what he is saying.
