Sinopse
'1001 Legal Words You Need to Know' explains and illuminates the most difficult and arcane vocabulary any American has to deal with - that of the law. This comprehensive - but never condescending - guide to the language of the American legal system carefully defines and explains every term, and many entries have supplementary notes and a sample sentence. These notes include information about grammar associated with certain terms, as well as an etymology section usefulin finding the linguistic origins of each term. American and British spellings are differentiated (license vs. licence), as are singular and plural forms (dictum vs. dicta).
