Also introduces issues of bias in the legal profession for reflection and discussion as part of an externship experience. Discusses use of externship to improve traditional lawyering skills. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Read it ahead of time.Like so many law students, I have an externship this summer. Yay! Like so many law students I have a boring class that accompanies that externship. Boo! This book is the textbook for that snooze of a class. The book is good. It would be very helpful to at least read the first few chapters before you start that way you avoid making the common mistakes that seem to plague first time externs. I will admit to making such mistakes since we didn't get around to reading relevant sections ... Read More Rating:  - Written for the Mentally Challenged Law StudentThis text blows. It is so dumbed down that I find it more excruciating to read 10 pages in this than 100 pages of Con Law. It gets an extra star because it is paperback. |
