序言众所周知，美国法是英美法系的典型代表，其法律体系完整、内容丰富，既有传统的普通法，又有新兴的成文法；既有统一的联邦法，又有各州的法律。同时，美国法在世界范围内影响深远，学习研究美国法意义重大，这不仅表现为许多国家都在研究美国的法律规则，借鉴其成熟做法，还表现为许多国际公约也参照美国法的理念、原则、规则制定。
因此，本书主要选取了美国法案例作为阅读理解材料，希望读者通过研读这些部门法的经典案例，学习权威、实用的美国法律知识，掌握地道、纯正的法律英语。本书具有以下特点：
首先，编者参考了大量的美国原版法学书籍，包括美国法学院教材及大量判例，力求实现教材内容的权威性和丰富性。
其次，本书作为法律英语阅读教材，选取了极具代表性的英文案例。英美法系是判例法系，无论是法官还是律师都特别注重对判例的研究，因此学习美国法不能绕过案例。通过研究案例，了解法官判案推理过程和有关法律、法规的适用，更有利于学习标准的法律英语。也更容易掌握美国法的精髓。本书选取了几十个经典案例，以期最大程度的展现美国法原貌。
再次，本书在每个案例的后面都附有问答练习题，以期帮助读者检查自己学习研读案例的程度水平。
