For the serious
Very competent and complete, this book is written for law students or others needing a law oriented text. The examples and explanations are the helpful, showing how transactions are shaped by law and action, along with case law citations.

As far as the E&Es go this one is OK. This is for an upper level course and your professor might not be interested in the same stuff that the E&E writers use. My professor was mainly interested in California law and in environmental problems. This book takes a more national approach and sometimes the state law is greatly different. There is a chapter here on environmental problems and regulations but for my course it was like 60% of the final. Just keep in mind that what is in this book might be correct, but professors have a lot of room to do as they please. My jerk of a professor told us all semester that we would be having a totally open book, open note, final. So I decided that for all of the non-environmental property law sections I would just take my notes in the margins of the E&E, and I marked where California laws differed. Then come exam day his instructions say no commercial supplements allowed. Fortunately I had all the environmental stuff in another outline and was able to remember enough to get a B. Whatever, law school sucks anyway. I should have joined the circus instead of wasting my life in law school.

no text book required
Use this book, and you won't need to open the text book. I got an A!

Worst E&E book I have used.
I am a big proponent of the Examples & Explanations series; they carried me through law school. For many of my courses the E&E was the only book that I opened all semester. Particularly well written were the E&Es on Civil Procedure, Fed. Income Tax, Corporate Tax, Crim. Law, & Evidence. However, this E&E by Barlow Burke is a complete disaster. I am amazed at the lack of clarity in the writing. It needs to be rewritten by a different author. I apologize for not recalling a particular example to point out, but I can only restate that I relied on many of the E&Es for other classes and I just simply could not comprehend this one. As another reviewer wrote "The style of writing is confusing." Amen.

Good
Our casebook was good, but this book was better. I wish I'd had enough more time to take full advantage (it was a summer course). Still, I got an A+. Draw your own conclusions.

Horrible, just horrible
What is this garbage? Seriously. I have used many many E&Es, and most to great success. This is just a piece of garbage. Do not buy.
