Reader description(s): DON'T BUY - OLD EDITION (19/21 votes)2005 Amendments are not in the burgundy colored BNK law book - they are in the new one. The cover is blue. The burgundy colored one in OLD law. Buy the new blue one (2005) that has the new amendments in it. Mad (7/8 votes)I was tricked into thinking this was the new book that covered the new code! If it isn't the 2005 edition with the blue cover.....then don't put the #$@#$#$ 2005 edition cover on display!!!!!!!!! Amazon really SUCKS sometimes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Better guides are available (6/6 votes)This is probably the worst of the guides available for bankruptcy law. It seems to have been put together in a hurry, maybe to be the first guide on the market to address the 2005 amendments. I had to look else where after being disappointed with this and prefer the following: 1. Baird's Elements of Bankruptcy (awesome!) 2. Blum's Examples & Explanations Compare before you buy (4/4 votes)Epstein's book was one of the first to provide a concise intro to bankruptcy law. A number of students have found Bankruptcy And Debtor/creditor: Examples And Explanations (Examples & Explanations) easier to understand with regard to Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. For an introduction to Chapter 11, the book that is getting great reviews is: Chapter 11 Business Reorganizations: For Business Leaders, Accountants And Lawyers. All three authors know their stuff. Very Helpful (4/6 votes)This was a great supplement to my bankruptcy class in law school. Prof. Epstein has put together an easy-to-understand summary of bankruptcy rules. Law Student's Opinion (2/2 votes)I used this Nutshell to help create my outline and fill in holes towards the end of the semester. I thought the book was well-organized and appreciated its explanation of confusing code sections. I wish I had purchased this book earlier in the semester since using it thoughout the class would have been beneficial. Summary: Much like other Nutshells - very helpful!
