Review Quotes: "Though the problems these essays confront are difficult, you will find in them neither despair nor defeat. They are never cynical, but always skeptical. And skepticism - at least this is how I see it - is always a symptom of hope. Why question the world as it is if you don't believe it can be something better? So, listen to the voices of these young lawyers. Learn from them, see things from their perspectives, and, most importantly, feel the hope that drives their inquiries." Joel Bakan, author and filmmaker of The Corporation and The New Corporation
