Condition: Very Good. Among the many new skills law students have to acquire, using legal method and solving legal problems are possibly the most important. Yet all too oft en these legal skills are ignored, and it is assumed that students will acq uire them as they progress through their course. The authors of Learning Le gal Rules bring together the theory, structure, and practice of legal reaso ning in a readily accessible style. The book explains how to uncover and ex ploit the mysteries of legal materials. This is then used to draw the stude nt into the techniques of legal analysis and argument and the operation of precedent and statutory interpretation. Throughout the book the authors als o examine the permeating influence of EC Law and the legal method employed by Continental legal systems. The fifth edition has been extensively rewrit ten and reorganized to ensure that it continues to fit the needs of today's law students.
