    Admittedly, it has been 32 years since I actually sat in a law school
    classroom, so my current knowledge is probably out of date (or at least
    subject to pocket-part revisionism).

     

    Some one has asked me what textbooks are generally used by first year
    law students for the basic courses - torts, criminal law, property and
    the like. Since I am not sure, I thought it would be nice to get a
    survey of the list.

     

    So, are the texts currently used by first year law students casebooks,
    professor prepared case packets, descriptive texts, law summaries, or
    something else?

     

    What say you?
