| 520 | |a "'Short and Happy?' This book is indeed 'short' - much shorter than any other student guide. The reason is that other student guides are written to help you understand your business associations/organizations course, to get you through 42 or 56 class-hours. This student guide is different. It is written to help you understand your prof's final exam questions - to get you through a 3- or 4- hour exam. Rather than teaching you how cases and concepts are applied in the real world, this book teaches you how cases and concepts need to be applied in the 'unreal' world of law school exams. This is the book to read after you have spent the semester working on law review (Or was it clinic? Or client counseling competitions? Or Kundalini yoga? Or shape note singing?) instead of Business Associations. As Camus (and Noreen Vanderslice) might counsel, 'Don't be Sisyphus. Buy and read this book'"--Unedited summary from book cover | ||
