Professor Samaha publishes new editions so that he can update the court cases and keep the book current. As a professor, Joel Samaha is extremely down to Earth, and strongly opinionated.

Very intriguing and informative book for my course, easy to follow. Might actually purchase it alone in the future for further reading!
