Dr. Michael Arnheim is a practicing London Barrister and Sometime Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge. He started life as a Classicist, and his Cambridge Ph.D. dissertation was published as a book by the Oxford University Press. He was then elected a Fellow of St. John's College, where he did a good deal of teaching as well as research. At the age of 31 he was invited to take up the position of full Professor and Head of the Department of Classics back at his old university in South Africa. He returned to Britain, where he was called to the Bar in 1988. He has combined his legal practice with teaching and writing, including the book US Constitution for Dummies, published by Wiley, which is now in its second edition. The present book is Dr. Arnheim's 21st published book. For more information see https: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Arnheim.
"""Paraphrasing George Bernard Shaw, England and America are divided by a common legal heritage and a common legal terminology. Arnheim has produced a penetrating comparative study illuminating major similarities and differences of the two major legal systems within the so-called Anglo-American or Common Law family of legal systems. Noteworthy for its insights and up to the minute in coverage, experienced attorneys and law students have much to learn from this volume."" William E. Butler, Dickinson Law, Pennsylvania State University ""Clear, crisp, and eminently readable, Michael Arnheim's Anglo-American Law offers readers a well-planned comparative exploration of two great Common Law jurisdictions. Addressing topics ranging from judicial and legislative lawmaking to free speech and protection of privacy, the text colorfully explains key differences and commonalities, supported by vivid excerpts from cases and statutes spanning centuries on both sides of the Atlantic. The text is lucid, insightful, and occasionally provocative."" Vincent R. Johnson, Interim Dean and Charles E. Cantú Distinguished Professor of Law, St. Mary's University School of Law ""A London barrister-at-law (with a St. Johns College, Cambridge, Ph.D.) wades into the evolution of US and UK legislation and case law, both codified and common, and emerges with an entertaining and pointed comparison of the US and UK legal systems. ... Anglo-American Law can be read on several levels, but an intellectually curious lay reader may profit the most. Dr. Arnheim's synopses of dozens of leading US and UK appellate court decisions are alone worth the price of admission."" James Veach, former Senior Counsel, Mound, Cotton, Wollan & Greengrass (NYC Office); Adjunct Professor, Fairleigh Dickinson University"
