The Law of Torts Webby Book is clear, easy to read and has great charts and graphs to navigate through the various topics. It is a great shift from the traditional casebook.

The text is very easy on the reader’s eye and contains design features that permit casual movement within the textual parts.

The ease of navigation is tremendous when I want to search for a particular phrase or case; the search function allows me to do so and enhances the efficiency of my studies.
