Description and Table of Contents
Description
Arguably the most valuable reference tool available to the legal community, Black's Pocket Dictionary provides more than 10,000 clear, concise, and precise definitions. And with the publication of the 3rd Edition, Black's Law Pocket Dictionary is now the most up-to-date pocket law dictionary available from any publisher. For the first time, definitions in Black's Law Pocket Dictionary have been reviewed by a panel of scholars and expert practitioners, under a review process similar to that for the Deluxe, Standard, and Abridged Editions of Black's Law Dictionary. Plus definitions for terms related to bankruptcy, contracts, evidence, and departments of the federal government have been dramatically improved. Students taking classes in any of these areas will want to replace their previous Black's Law Pocket dictionaries with the newest edition. Finally, Black's Law Pocket Dictionary, 3rd Ed., has significantly improved cross-referencing, making it much easier to find related terms.
