Don't Settle for Imitations
Whether you are the law student to whom the book is addressed, or just a savvy layman who needs to fill some gaps quickly, this book just may be all you'll ever need on wills, trusts, and estates.I ordered ten books to research my paper on inter vivos trusts and over half the footnotes reference Dukeminier.In each topical area, the general statutes are explained, often with ancillary explanations of tax treatment, then the authors dive into cases, explaining how the cases were argued and adjudicated.The text flows so well that you feel as though you are having a conversation with the authors.I particularly enjoyed the entertaining anecdotes drawn from pop culture.Do not let the cost of this book be a factor in your decision to purchase it; you may find yourself refering to it when you attend to your own will, trusts, and estate.

great in-depth intro to wills & trusts
If you want to learn the general law about Wills and Trusts, this is the book.There are other supplements you can buy that can introduce you to the subject, but no other book comes close to going to the depth that this book does.It is helpful to have taken a course in Property before reading this book, so that you will have experience in dealing with the Rule Against Perpetuities.Read more

Concretes the abstract
For those of you in your first-year, you have (will have) undoubtedly discovered the abstract nature of contract law.Unsettling for many is the fact that casebooks, while providing application, don't do much for reinforcing the concepts applied in the cases.For assistance, I happily recommend this volume.
Murray On Contracts:a priceless study of contract law
Professor Murray has created a masterful volume cogently and concisely providing the principles of contract law.Murray on Contracts is a must read for any law student, practitioner, or business person seriouslyinterested in a complete study of contract law.This volume containsabundant citations to case law and legal commentary that is valuable to anypractitioner analyzing the state of a principle of contract law in his orher jurisdiction.In addition, Murray's lucid and facile style allows thelayman and lawyer alike to learn the principles of contract law withpleasure and insight.This is a great contrast to the overly pedanticstyle of many academic commentators in various courses of study.In short,Murray on Contracts does what few other volumes of its kind can do:make avolume of complex and arcane legal principles read like an engrossingnovel. ...
