I love this book. The book reminds me of my first days in law school, because this is one of the first texts we used for required reading. However, the book harkens nostalgia for me, but it remains a strong and articulate text for understanding legal reasoning. This work exemplifies the way in which legal scholars, lawyers, judges, and citizens must review cases, digest cases, and reason in ways that make the rule of law the foundation on which our republic is built.

This is a very difficult book to read. It requires complete concentration.

I'd probably appreciate it more if I completely understood it. A good overview of how a body of law expands and changes in constitutional, case law, and statutory contexts. I intend to re-read it soon.

Absolutely fascinating. This is the sort of book from which I'll continue to draw knowledge year after year.

Levi really simplifies the "science of legal reasoning" in a nice easy to remember mantra of "reasoning by example".

He tracks the development of case law, statutory interpretation, and constitutional law through this theory and provides a nice foundation for attacking legal problems.

A must read for any student of law.

Flat textbook writing at its most mind-numbing. Don't be fooled by those who say you "must" read it before law school. If you're starting law school in the fall and want a head start, get John Delaney's Learning Legal Reasoning.

concise & interesting. showed me how today's arguments for constitutional originalism fall flat even to a book first written 50+ years ago.

a short, knotty little book. he sketches the dialectical movement of case law, statutory interpretation, and constitutional law in history.
