THIS is not a textbook, and it is not a book that is likely to be prescribed in any examination syllabus. First published in 1945, Glanville Williams: Learning the Law has been introducing students to the 'foundation' skills needed to study law effectively for more than sixty years. I highly recommend it, I have read four chapters up to now and have enjoyed every single one immensely and learned a lot from it.

Essential reading for anyone embarking on the study of law or on a course that includes an element of law. It introduces the reader to the peculiar case law method of studying law, as well as the relevance of statute law.

My first non specialised law book purchase in 25 years; concise, well laid out and excellent value for money. The first few chapters were about Law itself and they were really badly structured and unhelpful for a fresher as legal vocab was thrown around with no definitions to follow up, and sometimes two related terms were mentioned and only one was explained. Gives a real insight, and lots of pre-law knowledge that will help you before you begin studying law.
