Cases In Comparative Politics
by Patrick H. O`neil Karl Fields Don ShareThis book can be traced to an ongoing experiment undertaken by the three comparative political scientists in the Department of Politics and Government at the University of Puget Sound. Over the years the three authors spent much time discussing the challenges of teaching our introductory course in comparative politics. In those discussions they came to realize that each of them taught the course so differently that students completing different sections of the course did not really share a common conceptual vocabulary. Over several years the authors fashioned a unified curriculum for Introduction to Comparative Politics, drawing on the strengths of each of their particular approaches. This is a casebook for comparative politics because it provides up-to-date coverage of the 13 most-taught countries.

Cases, Problems, and Materials on Contracts (Aspen Casebook Series)
by Douglas J. Whaley David HortonCases, Problems, and Materials on Contracts is known for pioneering the problem method of law school teaching. A staple in classrooms for decades, it stands out from other texts in the scope of its coverage and its use of short, carefully-constructed Problems to expose students to new concepts, reinforce what they have just learned, and stimulate thought. The Eighth Edition, the first since the passing of Thomas Crandall and the addition of David Horton as co-author, is more accessible than ever. It introduces complicated issues with a clear narrative summary or explicit statement of black-letter law. The cases have been tightly edited for best effect. The book can also be easily adapted to fit various pedagogical needs. Although it starts with “Agreement” and moves to “Consideration,” it is also designed for teachers who prefer to begin with “Consideration” or “Remedies.” It can be used in courses that both include and exclude sales. Finally, because it is shorter than most other texts in this field, it works in 4-unit, 5-unit, and 6-unit courses. <p><p> New to the Eighth Edition: <p><p> Substantial input from a new co-author means that the book contains scores of new cases, Problems, and narrative introductions to issues. Each opinion has been streamlined to enhance readability.
