"English for Law Students" is written by experts in communication and aims to encouraging dialogue and interaction between lecturer and student. As such the methodology used is not only useful to law students but also to those lecturers who do not have a legal background. This second edition incorporates feedback form lecturers who have used the book since 1997. New exercises and reading material have been included. Legal English and other similar courses are to be incorporated into the new curriculum. This book will make an essential and highly significant contribution to this development.
