The Revised 6th Edition of this popular casebook contains an omitted APA section but is otherwise identical to the 6th Edition. Like previous editions, it focuses on real problems and real administrative practice. Problems serve as the primary pedagogical tool, including problems that do not involve courts. The book raises ethical issues distinctive to government lawyers, requires students to parse statutory and regulatory text in solving problems, and orients the course around administrative law practice rather than theory. While theory is not ignored, the book focuses on reality-based problems that put theory in context. It includes the most recent important Supreme Court and Courts of Appeals cases, including King v. Burwell, with its rejection of Chevron when a case involves interpretive questions of deep "economic and political significance"; Perez v. Mortgage Bankers Ass'n, which overruled the D.C. Circuit's Alaska Hunters line of cases; Lexmark International's attempt to clarify the meaning of prudential standing; Spokeo, Inc. v. Robins, with its rejection of standing absent concrete injury to a person, even when a person's statutory right has been violated; and Corps of Engineers v. Hawkes' elaboration of the test for finality. Notably, the new edition joins the ranks of Interactive Casebooks, a new breed of casebook that features a novel visual display and layout that uses text boxes, and color/border segregated feature sections for hypotheticals, reference to scholarly debates, useful information for students, and provocative questions. A major distinguishing feature of the book is its inclusion of an accompanying electronic version with the extensive hyperlinking to Westlaw versions of legal materials, Black's Law Dictionary definitions, supplementary online resources and more. The 6th Edition utilizes the CasebookPlus (TM) platform, providing students with digital access to faculty-authored self-assessments that are keyed to the text. CasebookPlus Hardbound - New, hardbound print book includes lifetime digital access to an eBook, with the ability to highlight and take notes, and 12-month access to a digital Learning Library that includes self-assessment quizzes tied to this book, leading study aids, an outline starter, and Gilbert Law Dictionary.

Unlike most constitutional law books, this book does not assume that the students have any particular knowledge of American history, government, or law, so it begins with a rich introductory chapter to provide students with a necessary foundation for the rest of the material. Thereafter, it supplements the familiar cases with historical context and pictures and biographies of current and famous justices adjacent to their opinions. At the end of virtually all the substantive sections of the book, there are discussion problems to facilitate class discussion on hot issues. It makes the traditional canon accessible and enjoyable to the current generation. Easily covered over two semesters, the book manages through careful case selection to avoid drastic editing of all but the longest cases. An annual supplement available for fall classes includes the important cases from the previous Supreme Court term.

IIi kaum einer anderen Industrie ist der Gang der Erzeugung vom Rohstoff bis zur fertigen Ware ein so Iangwieriger wie in der Fein keramik. Fiir eine erfoigreiche Fabrikation ist die Auswahl der Roh stoffe und ihre sachgemaBe Aufbereitung die wichtigste Grundlage und Vorbedingung. Es erschien daher zweckmaBig, einmal alles, was fiir die Kenntnis der Rohstoffe und ihre Verarbeitung zu feinkeramischen Massen und Glasuren wissenswert ist, im Zusammenhang darzustellen, auf Grund der praktischen Erfahrungen und wissenschaftlichen For. schungsergebnisse, die man im Veriauf der Ietzten Jahrzehnte auf diesem Gebiete gewonnen hat. DaB hierbei auch an alteren empirischen Erkenntnissen nicht voriibergegangen werden konnte, war bei der vor sichtigen konservativen Einstellung der keramischen Praxis selbst verstandlich. Soweit es dem Verfasser moglich war, hat er auch den Inhalt der fachlichen Veroffentlichungen des Auslands bei seinen Aus fiihrungen beriicksichtigt; denn wenn man den Wert der an Umfang jahrlich immer mehr anwachsenden auslandischen Fachliteratur auch nicht zu iiberschatzen braucht, so muB doch auch dem deutschen Ke. ramiker Gelegenheit geboten werden, rasch und in zusammenhangen. der Form Wissenswertes iiber die Rohstoffe der feinkeramischen In dustrie des Ausiands kennenzulernen, von der er fast taglich etwas Neues hort oder liest. Auf die Formgebung und den BrennprozeB der Waren wurde nicht oder nur andeutungsweise eingegangen, um den Rahmen des Buches nicht zu iiberschreiten. Auch eine Beschreibung der Verfahren zur Roh stoffuntersuchung war nicht beabsichtigt. Dafiir wurde der Begriff "Rohstoffe der Feinkeramik" nicht allzu eng gefaBt, sondern auch aus manchen Grenzgebieten einiges mitgeteilt."
