The language of common law made simple provides a vital working manual for Italian students of law. This work not only explains the basic principles and highlights key cases and statutes of the law, but also the essentials of the UK legal usage and terminology, with revelant Italian equivalents where possible. Reference is also made to US usage. Readers are encouraged to adopt an analytical approach to their study of the subject consistent with their level of knowledge. The Study Guide provides practice in all the essential language skills, and combines both self study and classroom activities. The emphasis throughout is on guiding the student painlessly to a level of language fluency.
