Legislative Drafting Step-by-Step
''Mr. Rynearson has produced a guide for the legislative drafter that is both concise and complete. It is very well organized and presents a very complicated subject as clearly and directly as possible.Throughout the book, Mr. Rynearson has included drafting problems that are perfectly conceived to test the reader's understanding of each of the teaching points presented. And he very thoughtfully provides answers for the exercises at the end of the book.The book concludes with a series of appendices that should be very helpful to the aspiring drafter. All-in-all,Legislative Drafting Step-by-Stepis a highly readable and useful introduction to the art of legislative drafting, but it would also serve well as an excellent refresher course for the experienced drafter.'' --Francis L. (''Frank'') Burk, Jr., Legislative Counsel of the United States Senate, 1991-1999, and currently self-employed as a legislative drafting consultant''Arthur Rynearson's quarter century career as legislative draftsman, ultimately as Deputy Legislative Counsel of the United States Senate, enables him to draw on the experience of drafting literally thousands of legislative instruments for the US Senate. [...] There is a very detailed table of contents, a useful index and more than 50 pages of exercises (and answers!).To conclude: it has been an almost unadulterated pleasure to read this book. I heartily recommend it.'' --Don Wallace, Jr., Professor of Law, Georgetown University Law Center, and Chairman, International law Institute
