This versatile and pedagogically effective book brings together in a coordinated way the rich and diverse perspectives and more than 80 years combined teaching experience of two highly respected conflicts scholars: the author of 30 annual surveys of choice-of-law cases and drafter of three conflicts codifications, and the author of a path-breaking, established casebook on civil procedure. The book presents the real world of conflict law, behind the leading cases and beyond America's borders, through distilled documentation of what courts actually do and strategically placed extensive information about international practice and the law of other countries.

With CasebookPlus, you can customize your students’ learning experience and monitor their performance. The quiz editor allows you to create your own custom quiz set, suppress specific quiz questions or quiz sets, and time-release quiz questions.
