For the class that I am currently taking I find this book to be very efficient. It has all the Torts Law information to know. It has real Legal examples which makes it great. It gives you all the definition necessary to understand the law. I like the book a lot.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Torts & Personal Injury Law (West Legal Studies Series) (Paperback)
This is a very well written textbook on the Law of Torts (American law dealing with injuries done to others). There are a few books out there now that communicate the law very well to us newbies. I highly recommend this book just for these two reasons: clarity and effectiveness.
