From Amazon.com: This popular casebook, through the selection of classic and modern cases, provides an excellent tool for teaching students the common law foundations of the criminal law and modern statutory reform, including the Model Penal Code. Along the way, the casebook considers modern controversies (e.g., shaming; punishment, rape law, self-defense by battered women, euthanasia, the role of culture in determining culpability), and creatively uses literature (e.g., examining insanity through Edgar Allen Poe's The-Tell Tale Heart) and even brain teasers to confront (as the Preface states) the Big Questions . . . that philosophers, theologians, scientists, and poets, as well as lawyers, have grappled with for centuries.Professor Stephen Garvey (Cornell) joins the casebook beginning with this new edition. The Sixth Edition, as in the past, includes some new cases, as well as updates in the notes that bring current issues of criminal law to the fore.

最认真做reading的一门课，像读小说。

最认真做reading的一门课，像读小说。

读了四分之一吧，毕业了才明白casebook真的只是学习材料，不是自学工具，关键看教授怎么讲……case之后的评论和问题才是重点，反思、追问以及学习如何做argument。1L课程最让人越学越迷糊，给不了国内上课'学知识"的安全感。

相比于其他课，criminal law的case不是重点，毕竟所有判例都是根据法条的，所以重要的是statutory interpretation。书总体是有条理有逻辑的，但可能也是因为crim law open-ending的特性，case后的notes更多地引发思考而没有准确答案。教授上课也经常听同学发言却不给评价。让人学起来不踏实。
