 Law Terms for Dummies October 1, 2008
Very basic terms... this is good for a journalism major or anyone else (perhaps if you are reading a fictional law book) who wants to have a basic understanding of law terms. Good for the price.
 too small August 21, 2008
Although it is cheap, there's not very much in it. I was disappointed not to find any of the terms I needed reading cases for my first week of class. Spend the money and buy the regular 8th edition.

This book contains most of what you need for legal terms. Besides, who really needs to have their own copy of every legal term out there? Any library or firm you will ever study or work at will have the big version. All you need is a smaller one to carry around with you. And Black's still is the best.
