This review is from: Regulation of Bank Financial Service Activities: Cases and Materials (American Casebooks) (Hardcover)

This book is generally easy to read with few cases that are very difficult to understand. Unfortunately, given the changes in banking law and the foreshadowed changes, the book is outdated at two years old. My only other complaint is that it uses multiple cases to show some very simple legal decisions that would have been easily and more efficiently described in a quick note paragraph. The use of charts is a plus as most legal casebooks do not know how to incorporate technical writing into their legal mess.
