Law school faculty publish book to help students succeed

UCLA School of Law Professor Emeritus Paul Bergman and lecturers Patrick Goodman and Thomas Holm have published a new book up to help law school students. "Cracking the Case Method: Legal Analysis for Law School Success" (Vandeplas Publishing, 2012) illuminates why and how law school professors use appellate court cases as tools for teaching legal analysis. The authors assert that law school success relates to students' ability to integrate analytical skills into original stories by constructing their own unique arguments, both in class and when writing final examination essays.
