Listen and Learn.......2007-08-30
Spence gives many useful lessons. Listen to them with, as Spence puts it, your "third ear." Lawyers from all sorts of practice areas should listen and learn about "psychodrama." Listen. Feel your client's predicament. Spence gives new meaning to the teaching of Michael Tigar that "nothing you learned in law school teaches you to listen or to care."
Spence has a fair amount of bombast. His cowboy style fits few people. But that's his point. This CD will help you find your own voice.
As other reviewers have said, Win Your Case falters when Spence attempts to translate his trial lawyer strategies to other contexts. Certainly much of what Spence teaches translates in some ways to the boardroom, city hall, and other places. But Spence's useful examples in Win Your Case focus on trials of personal injury and criminal defense cases. Spence shines most brightly in those areas.
Win Your Case: How to Present, Persuade, and Prevail--Every Place, Every Time.......2006-08-05
Very deep and incisive
listen! It's wonderful.......2006-07-20
I listened to the audio book, which is long but wonderful! Once you get through the book you will have learned several very valuable lessons. Mr. Spence provides several approaches for winning your case and learing how to be genuine and convincing. He advocates an emotional and honest investment in your situation and he tells you exactly how to do it. It works, and although many of his cases give court room stories, anyone can apply it to their own life outside the court room. We often interrogate others while being interrogated in life. Check it out!!
A Book That Transfers Raw Emotion.......2006-04-24
Gerry Spence has a rather eloquent way of describing what is charisma: "Charisma is the controlled transfer of raw emotion."
It seems the whole book revolves around his definition of charisma. Once you have raw emotion you could then use tools like visual aids (and the book goes into details of this sort but always reminding the reader to be real) and so forth to transfer raw emotion to someone else (or a jury), in a controlled way.
It is the charisma that helps you present, persuade and prevail every place, every time, as the book's sub-title promises. And the book certainly transfers.

Better than nothing, but just slightly.......2007-09-19
This book is required reading for a class I'm taking. The professor mentioned on the first day of class that is it a bit outdated and that there are few books on this new subject, so we were stuck. In reading it I understand now his comments. The first thing that jump out at me is the poor editing. Most legal books, even paralegal books, are competently written, except for this one. I find the argument difficult to follow and the logic seems circular in many instances. I'm fairly well versed with in rem jurisdiction, but had a hard time trying follow the explanation in this book. I'm assuming that it is because it is trying to appeal to an IT crowd as well as those with legal backgrounds. Unfortunately this book ends up doing both poorly. Given that however, it does provide a good general introduction to the topic and a good place to start if you are new to the concept of cyber law as a discipline. Stated another way, its better than nothing.
the real deal with cyberlaw!.......2002-08-16
This is the first book that truly explains all about cyberlaw, It's easy to read and very educational, doesnt matter if your not that good with the internet you'll still enjoy reading this book that gives you all the information you need on cyberlaw, gives many cases as examples, and explains abrevations! I would recomend this book to anyone trying to understand what really go's on in the law of the world wide web.

A non common law layer comment........2000-11-24
An very updated text. Concise, precise and well presented. There is no bored and extensive dissertations about what should be the law of internet. This is a pragmatic view. Every topic is well documented and comes with several sugested sites to visit for reference or aditional information. Be aware this is an American Legal System analisys, it does not explores civil law implications. Useful for beginners and advanced legal professionals working in the web industry.

Expensive Reprint of Free Information.......2006-12-18
This book is a great example of the passive exploitation of the college textbook market. Publishers have perfected the art of having an expert slap together material that is not elaborated upon enough for advanced students, or which repackages information that can be obtained cheaply (or freely) elsewhere. Then the publisher can charge a grossly inflated price for the book, encourage professors to require it for students, then keep the price high by forcing scarcity in the marketplace for those same students who are forced to buy a copy at any cost. This particular book will only ever be purchased by college students in communications law, most of whom can get 99.9% of the knowledge herein for FREE. Here's the rub - this book is almost entirely made up of reprints of court case documents, which record the rulings and reasonings of judges. But if you are a college student - that is, a member of the only possible market demographic for this book - then your college probably offers free or inexpensive access to database services (such as LexisNexis or WestLaw) that compile this information for scholars.
In this book, the "author" Zelezny has supplied a brief introduction that is so brief as to be useless. Then each chapter has an introductory page that features a paragraph on the overall topic, followed by a list of one-sentence descriptions of why each of the selected cases is of interest. Then the court documents for each of the cases are simply reproduced (with some omissions that enhance brevity but damage full learning), and only a handful of those cases are supported by any explanatory introductions or conclusions from Zelezny. In short, Zelezny just barely tells you why he's reprinting information that is free elsewhere. Instead of buying this completely extraneous book, the student would be better served by simply learning which cases are considered classics in communications law, then reading the cases (plus their supporting documents to boot) on the computer network offered by the campus that holds the class that requires this book. Guess which one costs less. [~doomsdayer520~]
Nice.......2006-09-02
My book arrived within five days of placing my order, which was wonderful because I started class the very next day. There was some writing in it as described, but I don't care because it's a book, and as long as I can read the text, that's all that's really important. Anyway, the book was in great condition, it was the right edition, and it's easy to read. Thanks for the great service!
Good Reason It's a CLASSIC! (9th Ed./InfoTrac Incl.).......2002-05-03
"Must-have" if you're interested in law or law school bound...Superb reference and learning book (there is also a Study Guide -- harder to find); you'll keep this book for years of use! If you take a Criminal Justice course, this is the text you should hope the prof demands. It is truly the best out there. Yes, it's pricy - but worth every dollar.
Book Description
The Second Edition of Internet and Computer Law: Cases, Comments, and Questions reflects many important developments in this rapidly changing field. The text includes a new chapter on computer and internet crime, and includes many important recent cases that were decided since the publication of the first edition. The authors have chosen cases that are both important and teachable.
The text consists of key-issue cases such as those involving Altai, Napster, and MP3, plus extensive trademark and domain name arbitration. By covering older cases in notes, the patents chapter is able to include the latest federal circuit decisions on the patentability of software, computer-implemented business methods, and Internet techniques.

Web ReDesign 2.0: Workflow that Works
ASIN: 1568303823 |
Amazon.com
What does it feel like to create a major commercial Web site? And what do you have to do to make it succeed? David Siegel's new Secrets of Successful Web Sites gives us a close look at 15 high-profile projects and extracts the hard lessons that they can teach. Anyone embarking on a big development project, whether as a designer, producer, or client, will do well to consider them.
Siegel's premise is that commercial Web design is an exciting and noble undertaking, but one that is fraught with pitfalls. His goal is to help both designers and their clients understand what they are getting into, what each side needs to bring to the table, and what both sides must do to communicate effectively. He also addresses the practical realities that make or break a project, figuring out what a particular Web site is supposed to do, how long will it take to build, what it will cost, and how it will be maintained.
The first half of the book consists of case studies of the creation--often painful--of successful Web sites. The hurdles these developers faced include hopelessly unrealistic schedules, flaky subcontractors, confused clients, and the immaturity of Web technology itself. Each study showcases the particular problems that the designers faced, how they managed to overcome them, and how you can avoid finding yourself in the same spot. The second half of the book is a systematic exposition of the ropes: What the market realities are, how designers and clients find each other, how to put together a proposal and bid on a job, and how to manage a project using Web technology. Siegel also takes you through the creation of content and design, staffing the fledgling site, testing it, and finally getting it online.
Organizational nitty-gritty of this sort is the less glamorous side of building a site, but Siegel injects it with the same excitement that made his Creating Killer Web Sites a smash bestseller. Anyone involved in creating a real Web site will find excellent practical orientation and a lot of much-needed debunking in Secrets of Successful Web Sites.
Book Description
Much of the book consists of visual case studies that give information that most sites won't give out- what worked for them, why and exactly how. Readers learn the insider secrets of successful business planning, budgeting, and collaboration. Each case study explores both the client and developer point of view, so readers can see for themselves what works and what doesn't. This book gives clients everything they need to guarantee a successful site and gives Web developers everything they need to guarantee a successful Web business.
Customer Reviews:
Treats project management as a graphic design process.......2005-10-05
I had high hopes for this book when I started reading it. After all, David Seigel is highly regarded around Internet circles as a web design guru. Unfortunately, Siegel's graphic design background permeates his company's project management philosophy for building web sites. Basically, he advocates managing the process of building web sites like you would manage a graphic design project. Whether you agree with this or not (personally I don't), this book only contains about one-tenth of the project management depth of Steve McConnell's 'Software Project Survival Guide'.
Oldie but a Goodie.......2004-11-16
This book along with "Creating Killer Websites" should be a must have for any web designer. Yes, the books are getting a little old now and date them selves in regards to discussions about technology. But the books hold up over time with their common sense approach to project managment and design theory. These books are well worth the read.
Pretentious waste of time.......2002-07-14
... This book is aimed at graphic designers, marketing agencies and the like who put together nice marketing oriented sites, whose sole job is marketing the company. For people such as myself who implement lage scale ebusiness websites, intranets, corporate portals etc there is nothing. The concept of dynakic database driven sites isn't even mentioned.
These projects are a cross between an IT project (with all the traditional skills and techniques that implies) and a maketing project (such as a TV campaign). There are multiple wildly different and largely incompatibel skillsets at work and these have to be welded together to promoite efficiency, while not destroying the motivation and qualities of the diverse people involved.
Traditional IT managemnt skills have to blend with the world of the graphic designer and the business analyst. This book doesn't even start to cover that. An utter waste of time.
Added to this I personally find david siegel's designs immensely overrated.
Walking Your Web Talk.......2002-03-07
David Siegel's Secrets... is probably the only book you'll need for creating effective web projects. Good for beginners and pros! The best place I've seen for working with the entire project, small or large, not just the web site! The format of the book is exciting and sensible. The pages of the book are colorful and enticing! The language is fun and professional! I especially appreciate that there is a web site to accompany the book. The Sidebars are helpful hints and summaries, reinforcing the text and bulleting quick info.
I have highlighted, earmarked, bookmarked, circled and scribbled in this book. It's a book lover's dream and a web designer's partner! Great price here, too! Thanks for the fun learning experience in a ponderous realm, David!
Great lessons learned.......2001-10-17
This book is great for its lessons learned with the projects discussed in the first part. The second part on project management contains less new information for anyone who has any project management experience.
Book Description
In the years before the civil rights era, American broadcasting reflected the interests of the white mainstream, especially in the South. Today, the face of local television throughout the nation mirrors the diversity of the local populations.
The impetus for change began in 1964, when the Office of Communication of the United Church of Christ and two black Mississippians challenged the broadcasting license of WLBT, an NBC affiliate in Jackson, Mississippi. The lawsuit was the catalyst that would bring social reform to American broadcasting.
This station in a city whose population was forty percent black was charged with failure to give fair coverage to civil rights and to integration issues that were dominating the news. Among offenses cited by the black population were the cancellation of a network interview with the civil rights attorney Thurgood Marshall and editorializing against the integration of the University of Mississippi.
However, muscle, money, and a powerhouse Washington, D. C., law firm were on the side of the station. Despite the charges, the Federal Communications Commission twice renewed the station?s license. Twice the challengers won appeals to the federal courts. Warren Burger, then a federal appeals court judge, wrote decisions on both challenges. The first ordered the FCC to allow public participation in its proceedings. The second, an unprecedented move, took the license from WLBT.
This well told, deeply researched history of the case covers the legal battles over their more than fifteen years and reports the ultimate victory for civil rights. Aaron Henry, a black civil rights leader and one of the plaintiffs, became the station's chairman of the board. WLBT's new manager, also black, was the first in the South to hold such a position.
Burger's decision on this Mississippi case had widescale repercussions, for it allowed community groups in other regions to challenge their stations and to negotiate for improved services and for the employment of minorities.

Outdated information; Outdated CD.......2007-08-23
I ordered this book (new) for my husband (a trial atty) and he was extremely dissappointed in the outdated material and horrified by the price. The CD would barely run on his computer because the CD was so old. He said that it was certainly NOT "AN ESSENTIAL PART OF A WINNING COURTROOM STRATEGY" as advertised in the editorial extolling its importance. It is a waste of money.
Small Size, Huge Impact.......2005-06-27
I, too, was startled at the small black and white book that I had received for my $83. I had expected a glossy book full of wonderful illustrations.
What a fool I was! Winning Your Case with Graphics is one of the best instructional books I've ever purchased.
It arrived Friday; it's now Sunday and I've already ordered a second copy for my business partner.
Big price, little book...plenty of value.......2003-04-18
Originally hesitant about ordering this book, mainly due to sticker shock, I went ahead after previewing the table of contents. None of the other books I had searched on courtroom graphics seemed to cover the aspects I find to be most challenging- organizing the information, budgeting and estimating a realistic time-frame.
When the book arrived I was suprised to see it was quite small, less than 150 pages, and did not include color illustrations of the various charts and graphs. For a book on graphics with a hefty price tag, this seemed hardly worth the money.
However, having now read most of the book and browsed the included CD (which includes the same materials in a full color Adobe Acrobat file along with some compressed movies of animations), I must admit that the author's experience in the field and the advice she passes on to the reader are worth the price.
Most valuble to me have been the chapters concerning long-term planning, template design, and illustrating complex concepts.
Whereas some of the other courtroom graphics books seem to focus mainly on the graphics, "Winning Your Case" tackles the pricklier challenges inherent with legal presentations.
Being able to rely on the author's insights and observations have been a great help to me and I would recommend this book to attorneys or graphics people needing a crash course on what mistakes to avoid.

Not for the weak.......2000-05-05
This book contains verbatim case decisions from Supreme Court cases, District level cases and Appellate court cases. Each case is followed by a detailed comment section written by the editors which explains in plain English what the Justices are talking about. All the way from the First Amendment and Marketplace of Ideas theory to broadcast regulation, this book covers all major cases that have developed media law into the beast it is today. Good for the classroom, but better without a time limit.
