Lets the series down
Compared to other, generally excellent, audiotapes in the Law School Legends series, this one really lets the side down. The speaker mumbles and rambles his way through the subject in a way that I found impossible to listen to. Rapidly mumbled sentences are punctuated with pauses so long that if they were edited out the material could probably fit on three tapes rather than the four supplied.

This is the one that got me through Torts in law school.
This is THE classic hornbook for torts, and is an indispensable part of any law student's library.I still find myself referring to this one from time to time.When I was in law school the lucid and clear explanations of law, combined with copious footnoted citations, made this book a joy to own and read.
Good resource ... needs an update
I used this book in law school, and continue to use it 7 years into my practice.However the pocket part is the same one I've always had -- 1988 -- I cannot find an update.

P&K is a classic
I used P&K to supplement my casebook and class notes, and it guided me to an A- in torts.It's a great tool and a great read.However, it does have certain limitations: the final edition was published in the late 80s, so it does not provide much guidance on product liability, infliction of emotional distress and other emerging areas of tort law.Read more

A VERY GOOD STUDY GUIDE
This is a very good study guide for torts - strong points are its flow charts - but it was spotty in some areas & excellent in others - would recommend it - But I preferred the Understanding Torts by Lavine, I used them both though .. ... Read more

Great info, horribly written
White is obviously a master of the subject, but he doesn't exactly write so other people can *read* what he's saying.The format of the book -- small densely packed text -- only makes it worse.It's the sort of book that you have to read a sentence and then translate it back into english for yourself.Once you do that, you'll get a great understanding of how Torts have progressed from Holmes' day to the present.

Just what it sounds like
This fine volume is just what its title indicates: an intellectual history of tort law in America.Read more
