The law is all technical definitions. Technical definitions are the lifeblood of understanding the law. In law school you must know the technical definitions in order to ask the right questions to do your issue spotting on exams. How well you do in law school depends on how well you memorized the law and how many questions you can ask. If you ask all the questions you will spot all the issues.

Printed Legal Dictionaries have been fundamentally the same size ever since their inception. All of them, regardless of who publishes them, are about 1500 or so pages. The key question that has always bothered us and one that you must ask is, "What happened to all the law that has been formulated and created over the past centuries?" Do the people that publish printed dictionaries simply pick and choose what law they want to present to you? What happens to the rest of the law in a printed law dictionry?

Dean's Law Dictionary is digital so we keep the old and add the new. We don't need to make decisions as to what to keep because of limited space concerns.

That certainly cannot be said about a printed legal dictionary.

Plus, it's so easy to copy and paste any of the materials into your standard word processor for immediate and efficient usage. You can't do that with a printed dictionary! What good is a legal dictionary if you can't copy and paste out of it what you need for personal usage?

Enhanced print size. Let's face it.
