I only did not complete the last chapter in this EEs, so I am confident that I know enough about the book to compare it with Prof Glannon's Civ Pro & Torts editions. Compared to Prof Glannon's EEs, this book was a bit drier & not as didactic. For example, Prof Glannon would have short questions throughout a chapter, while Prof Singer et al take a while before they test a reader on a topic.

I don't know if this is usual or it is just something my Crim Law Prof likes to do. I wish this book had more examples testing our ability to interpret criminal statutes.

I like using examples and explanations as my supplement because it explains topics in a straight forward way that I seriously appreciate.

Useful, but not as clear in certain places as one might wish.
