Using a case study approach, the book introduces prospective law students to the legal system, as well as to legal reasoning, critical thinking and argument. What About Law? shows how the study of law can be fun, intellectually stimulating, challenging and of direct relevance to students. It helps answer the question 'what should I study at university?' and counters the perception that law is a dry, dull subject. The new edition of this book, which proved very popular when first published in 2007, provides a 'taster' for the study of law a short, accessible presentation of law as an academic subject, designed to help 17- and 18-year old students and others decide whether law is the right choice for them as a university subject, or, if they have already made the choice, what to expect when they start their law degree. Most young people considering studying law, or pursuing a legal career, have very little idea of what learning law involves and how universities teach law to their students.
