This book is a great read-- it's not too intellectual and certainly not too preachy, but, as the title says, full of wit and wisdom from the author's everyday life, with some gentle support from scripture. I find myself re-reading certain stories...

This book is very good for beginning your LSAT studies. The book excels at getting you familiar with the LSAT, which I believe is its primary purpose. For people looking for the LSAT "silver-bullet," this book isn't that. Anyone looking to begin...

Too vague and general for someone using the book to use as a reference. Does not go into a lot of key points you actually use on patrol. Also, tends to make remarks that do not reflect the reality of todays police work. The author seems out of...

Finally I've found a book that provides solid advice about the law school admissions process! This book contains a wealth of useful information about marketing oneself, essay writing and the interview process. I also thought the section "should...
