Emanuel Law Outlines: Family Law

To help students prepare for exams in family law, Weisberg (law, Hastings College, U. of California) reviews influences on, and contemporary legal trends in, this dynamic legal field. Coverage encompasses premarital agreements; alternative families (e.g., heterosexual and same-sex unmarried couples) ; child abuse; open adoption; and the controversial issue of attorney-client sexual relationships. The text includes a casebook correlation chart, essay tests with tips and answers, a glossary, and tables of cases and statutes. Annotation 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
