Myers' California Criminal Law, Cases, Problems and Materials (American Casebook Series)

This concise casebook provides a comprehensive introduction to substantive criminal law. While focusing primarily on California law, it covers the broad principles of criminal law that are tested on the bar examination, including the Multistate Bar Examination. Shorter than most competing books, it is amenable to a 2 or 3-unit semester-long course. It is loaded with problems―most of them taken from actual California cases.
