Rese�a del editor:

According to Internet World Statistics, nearly 250 million people in North America use the Internet. Unlike many legal research books, written primarily for lawyers, Nolo’s book, Legal Research, doesn’t assume readers have access to expensive legal research databases; all it presumes is that they have access to the Internet and their local library. Excellent for anyone searching for information in a real or virtual law library (including paralegals, law students, legal assistants and journalists), Legal Research outlines a systematic method to find answers and get results—all at low-cost. Using plain-English along, with examples and instructions, it takes the complex task of conducting legal research and makes it understandable for regular people. Author-attorneys Elias and Schroeder explain how to: � use all the basic tools of legal research � narrow the area of law to be researched in order to better define the legal question � read and understand statutes, regulations and cases � evaluate cases for their value as precedent � practice what you've learned with "hands-on, feet-in" library exercises, as well as hypothetical research problems and solutions Now in its 15th edition, Legal Research has been significantly reorganized to focus on, and take advantage of, Internet resources. Additionally, it contains more information to help users apply their legal research to real-world problems in a practical way, with resources broken down by subject area.
