Inspired by problems that spring from real life, Evidence presents the intricacies of evidence law in a way that law students will find both intellectually compelling and enjoyable. The author covers materials in detail, including relevance, reliability, and privileges. Whenever possible, problems are based on facts quoted from cases or news articles, complete with citations. This fact-based approach piques student interest, causing them to ask, How would a good lawyer attack this problem rather than What is the professor driving at. Written with the belief that students typically prefer to look at the courtroom world through the criminal law lense, the casebook emphasizes the criminal context, while using civil cases when illustrating rules that apply mainly in the civil context.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Law School Casebook, Period.
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2010
Are other people in law school really too dumb to review books in the book review box? People don't care if there were more notes in your used textbook than you thought there would be, or if the shipping was slow. This is a place to review books.

This was a fantastic evidence book, and the best casebook I had in any law school class by far. It first goes over each evidentiary rule, then gives plentiful examples to illustrate the rule. It is like a casebook and evidence study guide combined. I never had any say in which casebooks I used, but if you're able to request a specific casebook, request this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hapless law student
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2009
This is a fantastic textbook for teaching evidence. It is divided up very clearly and goes through the rules and doctrines one by one with cases that are on point and well edited. The font size is nice. The book also lays out charts and well-organized discussions to explain some of the more complex areas. And thankfully, it doesn't waste your time with philosophical discussions about the nature of truth/proof or a "more perfect law" that are of littleinterest to the student seeking to prepare for the exam. Nor does it have little notes directing you to hundreds of other cases that you will never read.

I highly recommend this book
