Criminal Procedure, An Analysis of Cases and Concepts

Whitebread & Slobogin's Criminal Procedure: An Analysis of Cases and Concepts (6th ed. 2014) is a sophisticated, readable treatment of virtually all the Supreme Court's criminal procedure decisions, as well as of selected federal and state statutes and rules and lower court decisions. It not only describes the relevant law and provides helpful summaries of it at the end of each chapter, but traces the law's historical development, provides the facts of the most important cases so students can understand the context of the decision, and organizes each chapter in a flow-chart fashion that provides students with a roadmap for analyzing the material. Each chapter ends with an up-to-date bibliography.
