Discover the art and science of appellate advocacy with Contemporary Appellate Advocacy, a comprehensive textbook for law students and lawyers.

This book is based on the idea that law students learn best how to draft contracts by drafting in realistic settings.

This new casebook offers an approach to contracts that is both thoughtfully grounded and efficiently structured.

This entirely revised and updated edition contains new text, questions, and practical exercises that cover both doctrine and the foundational client-advising skills to be tested on the "next generation" bar exam.

Contracts and Sales: Contemporary Cases and Problems presents the concepts of contract law in contemporary language and in contemporary settings while still including some of the old "chestnut cases."

This new edition of the Document Supplement contains relevant provisions of Articles 1 and 2 of the UCC, the Restatement (Second) of Contracts, and the CISG.

Every chapter in this innovative casebook places students in roles as practitioners handling simulated law practice problems; provides context in the form of an overview of the law, similar to that which an attorney would read before reading cases in a new subject area; includes questions designed to encourage students to find the applicable statutes and cases on point in the state where the student is planning to practice law; includes exercises, visual aids, and case reading scaffolds, designed to engage students with a wide range of learning styles; and ends with professionalism questions addressing ethical and professional identity questions suggested by the materials in the chapter.

Contracts: Cases, Text, and Problems promotes deep learning and formative assessment by combining introductory text, cases and statutes, and numerous exercises. The content and organization of the third edition is designed to maximize each student's comprehension and development of analytic skills. Charts and diagrams provide additional guidance to visual learners.

Contracts: The Law of Promises is a casebook for first-year contracts courses.

This casebook is tightly and coherently structured, intelligently distilled, and clearly contextualized.
