Administrative Justice in the United States, Second Edition

Additional Book Details

Foreign attorneys seeking an introduction to American public law, American students of administrative law, and others wanting to understand the workings of American government from a legal perspective, will all be well served by the second edition of An Introduction to Administrative Justice in the United States Like the first edition, widely adopted in American universities, it provides an overview of American administrative law. Originally written to introduce lawyers from abroad to American public law, it discusses most subjects that would be covered in an American law school course on Administrative Law or on the structural elements of American constitutional law. Strauss makes a particular effort to explain arrangements of American government that might be surprising to lawyers from other parts of the world. Thoroughly revised and current through June 2001, the second edition offers not only a comprehensive introduction to the caselaw, statutes, and literature of the subject, but also a wide range of websites through which American government can be explored firsthand. An eminent American attorney called the first edition of An Introduction to Administrative Justice in the United States; the most elegantly written book on law that I have read in a long time.
