Randy:

         I've used "Understanding the Law" by carper, Mietus and West for
non-business students.  It was pretty good.  It's a West Thomson Learning
product in its 3rd edition.

To laugh often and much. To win the respect of intelligent people, and the
affection of children. To earn the appreciation of honest critics and
endure the betrayal of false
friends. To appreciate beauty. To find the best in others. To leave the
world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a
redeemed social condition. To know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
