An Integrated Approach to Constitutional Law, 2d
Primary Author(s): Caplan, Aaron H.
This groundbreaking casebook is ideal for introductory Constitutional Law courses of 3–5 units that teach both structure and rights. Its novel approach presents constitutional law as a coherent system, not as isolated doctrines in silos. The book integrates subjects ordinarily taught in Con Law I and II; it integrates historical and doctrinal approaches; it integrates features of a casebook and a study guide; and it presents each case as an integrated whole, so that students learn relationships among doctrines while studying the details of each. Its tone is accessible, while its structure allows for sophisticated classroom discussion. A detailed teacher's manual and companion web site offer charts, slides, graphics, and additional source materials, significantly enhancing accessibility for first-time adopters.

Law and Religion, Cases and Materials, 4th
Primary Author(s): Griffin, Leslie C.
The fourth edition was updated to include important new Supreme Court cases on governmental prayer, reproductive healthcare rights, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), and same-sex marriage. The fourth edition continues the book's interdisciplinary approach to law and religion, its student-friendly notes and questions, and its inclusion of numerous non-Supreme Court cases from a variety of state, federal, and international courts. The chapters were reorganized to highlight the impact of the Court's most recent cases on the subject matter of law and religion. The first six chapters provide the foundational information about free exercise, establishment, and RFRA.

Patt v. Donner: A Simulated Casefile for Learning Civil Procedure
Primary Author(s): Multiple Authors
Our simulated casefile is intended to help civil procedure students put the course in context as they study, by requiring them to follow, and help draft the pleadings, as a simulated case unfolds from the first day of the semester to the last. On day 1 students watch a fourteen-minute You Tube™ video of an initial client interview. Paula Patt, a newly arrived graduate student in anthropology at UC Berkeley has been denied an apartment; she suspects it’s because she’s a single mother. Over the course of the semester students participate in drafting her complaint and seeking a TRO; switch sides to help complete motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim and lack of personal jurisdiction; switch back to amend the complaint, move for a protective order, and oppose a motion to intervene filed by the local fair housing group; and conclude the term with jury voir dire and, in the final week, participation in a settlement negotiation.

Practicing Bioethics Law
Primary Author(s): Griffin, Leslie C.
Practicing Bioethics Law provides basic readings in the field of bioethics law, including court cases, statutes, administrative regulations, briefs, and law review and other academic articles. The text presents theoretical debates about the latest bioethical subjects as well as practice-based materials that expose students to a wide range of possible bioethics-related careers. The book's companion website provides practice documents, videos, pictures, scientific materials and other information that is too complex to include in a traditional casebook. The authors combined the book and the website so readers could learn more about the practice of bioethics law at the same time they are beginning to understand the theory and content of bioethics law.
