 A great help for exam prep January 3, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I wish I had been using this book all semester. It was very helpful in preparing for my Evidence final; it shows how to apply the rules of evidence, and more importantly, how the rules work together. It acts like a roadmap, showing you which rule to start with and how to work through any of the tricky situations the professor may toss at you. The exam tips were very helpful in highlighting key issue-spotting areas and things the professors will commonly use on exams (quite accurate). I highly recommend it!

A great overview of Evidence Law in the U.S. courts system. I like the outline in the first pages. The price doesn't hurt either!
 Feeling reassured by having more books? January 8, 2007

At six-hundred pages, your average overworked law student is not too keen on reading another 40 pages a night, especially with a full slate of classes. That being said, this book contains a "Casebook correlation chart," which helps you decide which part of the book to read in the approximate order of your own textbook. It covers: Green Nesson, "Evidence" (3rd Ed. 2000); Wellborn, "Cases & Mat..." (1st ed. 2000); Mueller & Kirkpatrick, "Evidence Under the Rules" (4th Ed. 2000), and Waltz & Park, "Evidence" (9th Ed. 1999).
I would suggest checking this out of your law library instead of buying it and reading the relevant parts of the "Capsule Summary" (79 pages) if you're pressed for time and you want a nuanced overview of Evidence.
The rest of the book is nicely outlined, but way too much information for the average to under-achieving student. However if you want it for clarification on certain rules, or just having it in your bookshelf would make you feel better about Evidence, you can get it so cheap that it can't hurt.

I highly recommend this book (I have the '07 edition). It has flow charts, an outline, short answer questions, and multiple choice. It's a great review before finals. Definitely worth it's price too.
 Limited to students for final exam September 24, 2008

Not what I expected. Too concise and the principles underlying the rules are not fully developed. It may be good for a student who wants an overview for an exam, but that is all.
