Synopsis

For courses in Torts.

Using a light, conversational style―injected with humor, ingenuity and insight―this text makes the complex law of torts understandable for students at any level. Throughout, case excerpts are used as the basis for discovering the kinds of evidence/facts that parties in a case have used to establish their points. Students are challenged to think critically about each case―Were they effective? Were they creative? Were they persuasive? Did they work? What did the court want? The excerpts give students an idea of what kinds of evidence to put on, and to show them the beginnings of the process of evaluation and comparison that are at the core of stare decisis.
