Product Description
Product Description
Mooting in its earliest form dates from about 1845 when moots were organized by the Inns of Court. Today, the popularity of mooting among students has spread to such an extent that mooting competitions are run in virtually every university law faculty in the country. At the same time, both practitioners and academics have come to see mooting as an important way of encouraging both good legal research practices and better oral presentation of arguments, to the extent that many faculties have now integrated mooting into the formal curriculum.;This book includes only a large number of moots (drawn from a variety of subject areas) for use in competition, and also provides full guidance on how to stage a moot, including suggestions for research strategies and methods of oral presentation to the moot court. A worked example is provided, complete with the texts of speeches made by first year students at Birmingham University and annotations by the editors. A section on how to judge a moot is also included.
About the Author
Dr Tim Kaye is a Lecturer in Law at the University of Birmingham where he is the staff member responsible for mooting. Lynne Townley is a barrister working in legal publishing.

A Useful Text for Mooters and Moot Organisers,
This review is from: Blackstone's Book of Moots (Paperback)
This book is an excellent introduction to the art of mooting, for those involved as advocates, and indeed those who organise moot competitions. Also useful for those thinking of pursuing a career at the bar. Generally a good investment.
1.0 out of 5 stars
This book reviewed by Prof. of Law, Oxford,
By malcolm Knox (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blackstone's Book of Moots (Paperback)
Disappointing! To the introduction of mooting to the student of law, it would be advisable to invest in another better quality book. It lacks the intellectual depth needed in the topic.

Moot.......?,
By joe bloggs (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blackstone's Book of Moots (Paperback)
A very poor book and worth looking for an alternative. It lacks the detail to do a good moot.
