way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and
concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and
significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the
practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a
valuable time-saving tool for both practicing and academic jurists.
