* Offers the most thorough introductory essays of any text to each of it 15 substantive chapters.
* Includes carefully selected and edited cases, keeping the length in check.
* Provides a nice complement of end of chapter materials including Key Terms, Selected Readings, and-uniquely-Queries (Discussion Questions) for which the text is noted. * Supplemented by an author-written e-Resource that includes an Instructor's Manual with Test Bank, historical Court documents, noteworthy decisions and dissents, and cases from previous editions.
