An excellent resource: this well-written book provides a good introduction and overview to a broad range of topics and skills for undergraduate students.A comprehensive book covering the key aspects of the legal system,legal skills and employability skills-the employability section is particularly important and useful.The quality of the book's content is generally very high. The sections on practical skills and commercial awareness are particularly relevant and have a good level of detail and information.This textbook is great value for money and has great coverage. Fundamentally,the book puts the law into context,with an excellent number of examples to illustrate key legal skills concepts,and helps students draw introductory links between the different year one modules. I particularly like that the book does not become redundant after first year and is relevant to students throughout their LLB Law journey.Well-written and structured: Slorach's strength remains the ability to present concisely a variety of topics on content and skills.
