Experiencing Tort Law takes a blended approach to learning Tort law, incorporating traditional cases and restatement provisions with new cases highlighting modern applications of tort law to new and novel issues. This book also includes experiential exercises and practice multiple choice questions at the end of each section, allowing ample opportunity to test student preparedness against commonly tested bar exam topics.

Authors made extended efforts to choose cases with direct, concise analysis as well as interesting, stand-out fact patterns. Additionally, section introductions clearly outline hard-to-learn concepts and cases are chosen with a balance between tradition and clarity. Notes following important cases and concepts call attention to the most important aspects of each case while inviting students to think more deeply about law and policy.

This casebook is tailored towards the NextGen Bar with multiple choice and practical exercises spread throughout the material. Uniquely, this book unites three important author perspectives: a seasoned Torts professor with more than 35 years of experience, a cutting-edge Torts professor who writes and researches about law and emerging technology, and a recent student and current law clerk to the Missouri Supreme Court. Together, this author team worked to keep the most important classic cases while modernizing much of the material.

This title utilizes the CasebookPlus™ platform. Anchored by faculty-authored self-assessments, CasebookPlus allows students to test their understanding of core concepts as they are learning them in class with quizzes keyed to each chapter, subject area review quizzes, and helpful explanations.
