Sorry but it's not that good
Too vague for a hornbook. It does not clearly and concisely state the laws of civil procedure. It also spends a lot of time stating the author's feelings about civil procedure. For example, at the end of most chapters, he has a section called "reform proposal" where he offers his opinion on where the law should go. Some of the author's ideas are brilliant and interesting, but if I answered a test question using the vague style he uses, or based my answer on where I thought the law should be, my professor would be annoyed. It also has no practice problems.

Corbin in One Volume: A Good Overview
This is the seminal multi-volume work reduced to a single volume. As all law students know, Corbin is one of the great masters of contract law; his multi-volumn work is often quoted by courts. This single volume is anexcellent overview of the concepts embodied in his expanded treatise.Practicioners beware, the single volume omits entire sections of themulti-volume work, and leaves out virtually all of the case citations andfootnotes so important for writing legal documents. All in all the singlevolume is a good quick reference, but you will need the multi-volume workfor the more in-depth treatment required for everyday legal work. ... Read more
