Summary

English for Law is designed as a coursebook for undergraduate students of law. It meets the needs of the English syllabus prescribed for the law course, as it covers reading and interpreting different types of texts relevant to the legal profession, legal terms and other vocabulary items, word formation and grammar and usage.

The coursebook has 16 units and can be completed in two semesters, each covering eight units.

Though the coursebook has been designed for the students in law colleges, it would be useful also for legal professionals in the early stages of their career. It would be helpful to anyone who desires to improve their reading abilities particularly with reference to legal texts and to rediscover important aspects of English grammar and usage as they are exemplified in legal discourse.
