A Map of the Bridge |

...and other useful things |
The Bridge is divided into two major parts: a six-unit series on legal reasoning, and a series of modules on American Legal Theory, divided into six "tracks" representing important schools of thought. The series on legal reasoning should be approached in sequence. The materials on legal theory are more modular, and can be used in numerous ways some of which are suggested by the matrix below. Help with navigation and operation is also available.
