8 Bimonthly Rev. L. Books 1 (1997)

handle is hein.journals/bimrvlab8 and id is 1 raw text is: BIMONTHLY OOKS Volume 8 Number 1 January-February 1997 PRACTICING LAW, CLASS ACTIONS, TORTS The Anatomy of a Lawsuit. Peter N. Simon. Rev. ed. Charlottesville: Michie, 1996. 119 p. ISBN 1 55834 320 2. Reviewed by Edward J. Bander This book follows the case of Rasmussen v Graham from accident to ap- peal to the highest court of Colorado. It was a case of negligence where the Plaintiff was suing her friend for negligence while driving an automobile. The author follows the case from negotiation to commencement of the ac- tion, to jury verdict, to appeal. The book in- cludes the pleadings and is as good an intro- duction to the law as any. Over the years there have many books like this. The one I liked best was the person suing to get his engage- ment ring back when his affianced broke off the engagement. It is not only good for law students, but trial lawyers should keep a copy in their waiting room to let clients know what a law- yer does with his and their time.
