 3rd Edition = awesome. June 28, 2005

For some reason I think Amazon's reviews bleed through different editions.
IE. You will find reviews of the 1st/2nd edition on the 3rd editions page. This often misleads and/or distorts the promotion of a product.
The newest editions of examples & explanations are fabulous and settle a few issues that may have been present in the past. All to often students expect these to be comprehensive outlines like Emanuels that do all the work for them---no. The grades come to those who work and that is where this series shines. It gives you practice and furthers understanding.

This book was actually recommended for our Torts class and I am so glad it was. Glannon is a great writer and he makes things easy and fun to read (sometimes he is a little too punny). His examples are a great help too, especially around exam time. His practice exams are great at helping you to spot the issues and organize them clearly. Glannon also wrote Examples and Explanations for Civil Pro. That is highly recommended also!

I love these Examples & Explanations books. The rules make sense when you can get decent examples, and these books do a good job of that.
If you find your outline frustrating (Like Emmanuels and/or Gilberts - both of which drive me nuts with frustration) try the Finals series books. I like them much better as outlines than the "official outlines."
Helps demistify the world of tort law November 14, 1996

Joseph Glannon is a Professor at Suffolk University Law School in Boston. Professor Glannon's book helps to demistify the world of tort law. It is extremely helpful for the first year law student or to anyone who wants to learn about what a tort is. Professor Glannon makes material that reads dry in law books come alive! The book is peppered with hypothetical situations that build understanding of the subject. I highly recommend this book

This book is very easy to read and allows for easy digestion of complex principles. I find it to be very useful in understanding torts.
