UNDERSTANDING IMMIGRATION LAW by Nancy-Jo Merritt...

UNDERSTANDING IMMIGRATION LAW by Nancy-Jo Merritt (112 pp.); YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER by Marc R. Lieberman (104 pp.) and YOUR RIGHTS IN THE WORKPLACE by Richard L. Strohm (120 pp.) (Career Press: $8.95 each, paperback originals). The “Layman’s Guide to Law” series is designed to introduce the average citizen to the increasingly (and needlessly) embrangled U.S. legal system. The authors explain what may constitute grounds for legal action in key areas of American life. As the disclaimer notes, the books are not a substitute for a visit to a lawyer, but they provide a useful starting point for readers curious to know more about their rights and obligations.
