Cases and Materials on European Union Law, 4th (American Casebook Series)

I am writing this review in the hopes that a professor will read it and be dissuaded from making this their required text for a law school class. I am absolutely certain that this fascinating material could have been presented in a much less confusing and much more accessible manner. The authors seem as though they do not speak English as a first language and as such, their usage of certain words throughout the work consistently lead to confusion as American students do not understand how to interpret certain very crucial sentences. They consistently attempt to analogize EU law to various aspects of American Constitutional Law, which in theory can yield a really wonderful comparative analysis that leads to a deeper understanding of the foreign law being studied, but here such comparative analysis is incredibly cursory (sometimes outright incorrect in its broad sweeping generalizations) and adds little to the text. The material is presented in such a disorganized and unstructured manner that you will find several paragraphs in each chapter that are devoted to rote repetition. And by repetition, I mean written at least five times in the book. Why ask your students to spend so much money on a book, that no doubt has an elevated price due to the increased number of pages attributable to this very consistent and wholly unnecessary repetition? Thank goodness I have a wonderful professor, because this book is certainly not for studying on your own.
