Book excerpt: This supplemental text supports Murray and DeSanctis' Legal Writing and Analysis and Legal Research Methods, covering objective writing, legal research, and adversarial writing in a process method. It provides samples of good and bad writing and teaches the TREAT method and explanatory synthesis that produce powerful and effective objective and adversarial writing. The course book is paired with an electronic, computer-based version of the text that adds links to online databases and Internet-based resources and supplements the text with audio and visual explanations and depictions, and PowerPoint introductions to and summaries of the material.
