Two general/background books I've found valuable that will at least get you asking the right (directed) questions are:
Hope this helps.
Drafting Patents for Litigation and Licensing has lots of great information. It's quite pricey, but gives lots of great insight.
The best teacher is an experienced patent attorney, though.
And Ford didn't change after that.

You can choose to believe whatever you want. The law is systematically in favored of white. But this act was definitely racially motivated; racial profiling happens in a subconscious level, as substantiated by Zimmerman's following of Martin. The fact that Zimmerman thought Martin was suspicious has a lot more to do with merely the clothes he was wearing. Don't be naive.
>Dispatcher: Sanford Police Department. ...
Zimmerman: Hey we've had some break-ins in my neighborhood, and there's a real suspicious guy, uh, [near] Retreat View Circle, um, the best address I can give you is 111 Retreat View Circle. This guy looks like he's up to no good, or he's on drugs or something. It's raining and he's just walking around, looking about.
Dispatcher: OK, and this guy is he white, black, or Hispanic?
Zimmerman: He looks black.
How about this for facts about the law? Blacks are a lot more (4-7 times) to be stopped and searched and convicted of crimes

A funny thing about the law system in the U.S. (and elsewhere of course) is that people who have the privilege of being favored under the law system either think that it works perfectly or do not have enough experience to know that it is flawed; however those who have been disadvantaged by the institution know how bad it is.
Patricia Ewick and Susan Sibley wrote an amazing book called "In Litigation: Do the "Haves" Still Come Out Ahead?" where they identify the three categories of 1. Before the Law. 2. With the Law and 3. Up Against the Law, highlighting the problems of the law and court system in the U.S.
Some exerpts
It is a white privilege to be able to buy into the narrative that it was justified for Zimmerman to follow Martin. And reddit, mostly consisting of white males, age 18-25, would jump at the chances to relentlessly defend Zimmerman as if this incident has nothing to do with his responsbilities.
