_a"Plain English for Lawyers has been a favorite of law students, legal writing teachers, lawyers, and judges for almost 40 years. The seventh edition, co-authored by Amy Sloan, updates this classic text, including new chapters and exercises, while preserving all the approaches that make it such a standard in the field. In addition to guiding students through techniques for producing clear writing, it now introduces them to principles of document design and appropriate uses of generative AI for writing. Plain English for Lawyers remains (in size only!) a little book, small enough and palatable enough not to intimidate over-loaded law students"-- _cProvided by publisher. |
