Summary: Real insight into the "operative facts" of law school
Comment: I've bought several books purporting to be insiders' guides to law school (and beyond), but this book is the most perceptive and
elegantly expressed of the lot. It's actually written by an experienced lawyer and law school professor, as opposed to someone out of law school for just a couple years, so each sentence sparkles with insight and knowledge, wittily expressed. The real advantage of this book is its focus on the "operative facts" of law school -- other books tend to range over all the possible minutiae of the law school experience, and do much more bemusing than amusing in the process. This book, on the other hand, dispenses kernels of wisdom right and left -- as well as fascinating allusions to historical figures scientific, literary, and jurisprudential -- while offering a rigorous examination of the bases of most law school curricula. Highly readable and highly informative: a rare combination indeed in this often turgid genre.

Summary: My first year security blanket
Comment: I spent a good bit of time with this little book before and during my first year in law school. I read it very carefully, and even wrote out answers to the questions. The effort was well worth it. If you're scared to death, don't know what to expect, and want to do well, this book won't let you down. Hegland begins the process of teaching a law student how to think, and helps one keep the big picture in mind. This book also started my profitable relationship with the nutshell series.
