| 12. |  | The Lost Art of Drawing the Line: How Fairness Went Too Far
from Random House
Customer Review:
Howard's previous effort, "Death of Common Sense: How Law is Suffocating America," was spot-on. This one, unfortunately, takes the misguided and anti-liberty view that our courts are supposed to make law, rather than decide its legality.
Howard correctly excoriates the judicial approach which... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

As a new lawyer, this book really helped me realize so many things as to what a lawyer should do before, during, and after the trial.I am a Filipino, there is no racial discrimination in our country... yet I cried many times while reading this book.

| 14. |  | No Contest: Corporate Lawyers and the Perversion of Justice in America
from Random House
Price: $20.70
Customer Review:
No Contest is an extremely well-researched and compelling view of corporate law structure and how it threatens to undermine basic Constitutional rights both subtly and "in the open". Nader and Smith do a fantastic job of documenting and analyzing case studies which reveal the world of... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 15. |  | Triumph of Justice : Closing the Book On the Simpson Saga
from Crown
Customer Review:
All 636 pages of this book were spellbinding--by far the best trial lawyer book I've ever read. Petrocelli and Knobler do a magnificent job of keeping the reader hooked throughout a journey through depositions, evidence and testimony. Most electrifying of all was the examination of Simpson himself... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 16. |  | v. Goliath: The Trials of David Boies
from Pantheon
Customer Review:
Karen Donovan's book is something of a biography, a Grisham novel, a history book, and a litigation primer all wrapped into one. (As a litigator, I'm actually thinking that some of the strategies related in the book would be helpful for me in court.) Thoroughly engaging and entertaining, Ms. Donovan... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 17. |  | Suburban Sweatshops: The Fight for Immigrant Rights
from Belknap Press
Price: $13.56
Customer Review:
Uh, the author is a lawyer, which means her first obligation is to uphold the law. This means gathering up the illegal aliens and getting them out of the country, quickly. Instead, this "lawyer" decides that it's more important to figure out how to screw what remains of middle-class America in order... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

| 18. |  | Hot Property: The Stealing of Ideas in an Age of Globalization
from Knopf
Price: $21.02
Customer Review:
I treasure Dr. Pat Choates new title (book). It is an easy read and a total epiphany. I thought I totally knew the negative side of so-called free trade and after perusing HOT PROPERTY I realized I knew little. Dr. Choate not only pinned down the significance of intellectual property (new ideas... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

I bought this looking for some insight into the increasingly popular privacy movement. I got what I was looking for, but it wasn't a GREAT book, just a good book. | 4.0 / 5.0

| 20. |  | The Trouble with Principle
from Harvard University Press
Price: $15.25
Customer Review:
Fish's book on principle, where he dismantles the fanciful notions of "neutral zones" and "non-position positions" of argumentation, is a truly engaging work, like most of his books have been. You can't quite function fully as an American intellectual unless you engage with his thinking at some... more info | 3.5 / 5.0
