Highlights

An emphasis on readability.

The narrative is filled with fascinating stories, case excerpts, and "Law and Economics in Action" boxes.

Designed for maximum flexibility.

It consists of a large number of short chapters, thus providing an instructor with a menu of options to create the ideal course for their students.

An emphasis on internalization.

Internalization, the key principle behind civil law—the idea that a defendant has to pay the full price for the damage that their action caused, whether that damage affected only one person or many—is emphasized throughout.
