Industry Reviews

"Timely and excellent for use in our Poverty Law course."--Elizabeth C. Gray, Coppin State College "A powerful and well-documented indictment of the elite bar's failure to live up to the trust that has been bestowed upon it by our system of justice."--The New York Times Book Review "An enduring contribution to the sociology of American law....Those interested in the bar of the last century will be provoked by [Auerbach's] suggestive critiques of individuals and institutions."--Harvard Law Review
