3.0 out of 5 stars cheaper than the big book
This book contains most of what you need for legal terms. Besides, who really needs to have their own copy of every legal term out there? Any library or firm you will ever study or work at will have the big version. All you need is a smaller one to carry around with you. And Black's still is the best.

2.0 out of 5 stars too small, August 21, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Handbook of Basic Law Terms (Black's Law Dictionary Series) (Paperback)
Although it is cheap, there's not very much in it. I was disappointed not to find any of the terms I needed reading cases for my first week of class. Spend the money and buy the regular 8th edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too short, October 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Handbook of Basic Law Terms (Black's Law Dictionary Series) (Paperback)
As far as any dictionary is concerned, this one is a bit short. If you work in the legal field, you probably know most terms included in it. If you are beginning or do not work with Law, this may be helpful.

3.0 out of 5 stars Basic Law Terms Review, November 12, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Handbook of Basic Law Terms (Black's Law Dictionary Series) (Paperback)
It works. An actual "Black's Law" book would have been better or an Oxford dictionary.

3.0 out of 5 stars Law Terms for Dummies, October 1, 2008
This review is from: A Handbook of Basic Law Terms (Black's Law Dictionary Series) (Paperback)
Very basic terms... this is good for a journalism major or anyone else (perhaps if you are reading a fictional law book) who wants to have a basic understanding of law terms. Good for the price.
