Optimize Public Law Reviews

`[Optimize is] ideal for undergraduate students at all levels. The content is of a high standard, easy to read and understand. The materials are very catching and easy on the eye making it easy to read and digest the materials...an essential study tool for all law students' - George Ellison, Senior Lecturer in Law, University of Derby

`I am really impressed by the book...the strengths are the user friendly format, clear explanations, helpful diagrams/flowcharts and appropriate suggestions for analysing the issues concerned' - Katherine Davies, Senior Lecturer, Northumbria University

`I really liked the topics 'maps' at the start of each section, it's helpful for students to see how each topic links with each other. The visual features of the book are brilliant, as I find so many students to be visual learners. The revision objectives are great to demonstrate to the student exactly what they should know before the exam. `- Hayley Roberts, Lecturer in Law, Bangor University

`Comprehensive, but concise...the main strength of the publications are the excellent summaries/overviews, and maps of the relevant points.' - Bogusia Puchalska, Senior Lecturer, UCLAN

`As a revision guide, I can see this text as an invaluable student companion. It contains a variety of student-friendly features. In particular, the `chapter maps' and summaries of the key cases, which are presented in a table/diagram format, stand out. The use of everyday examples will help students to put into context the concepts/principles they've learnt about. `Common pitfalls' and `aim higher' are excellent features too, enabling students to develop their understanding of the topics. Pitched at the appropriate level...the text is written in a simple, straightforward style, making it easy for students to understand.' - Andrea Cerevkova, Senior Lecturer in Law, Edge Hill University

`...presented in a very attractive and eye catching way. Strengths are the copious use of flowcharts and the sufficient depth of explanation.'- Keith Gompertz, Senior Lecturer in Property Law, Coventry University

`I think this format helps concentrate the student mind onto key issues in revision. - Prof. Chris Gale, Bradford University Law School
