Book Review: Legal Writing: Getting It Right And Getting It Written By Mary Barnard Ray And Jill J. Ramsfield, Ruth C. Vance Jan 1987

Book Review: Legal Writing: Getting It Right And Getting It Written By Mary Barnard Ray And Jill J. Ramsfield, Ruth C. Vance

Seattle University Law Review

Legal Writing: Getting It Right and Getting It Written is a legal writing aid that is in a class by itself. This book does not fall neatly into the five predictable classifications of legal writing texts: those on legal research, those devoted to brief writing and oral argument, those on how to take law examinations and brief cases, those aimed at polishing grammar and style, and those that treat the subject generally. While there is still no single text that will completely cover any legal writing course, the references in Legal Writing obviate the need for a grammar and style …


Rent Seeking And The Compensation Principle, Thomas W. Merrill Jan 1987

Rent Seeking And The Compensation Principle, Thomas W. Merrill

Faculty Scholarship

The reaction to Richard Epstein's Takings has been almost universally negative. Joseph Sax finds Epstein the "prisoner of an intellectual style so confining and of a philosophy so rigid that he has disabled himself from seeing problems as beyond the grasp of mere formalism." Thomas Grey concludes that "Takings belongs with the output of the constitutional lunatic fringe" and is "a travesty of constitutional scholarship." Thomas Ross, writing in this Law Review, says that, at least from an academic perspective, Takings is "a patent and howling failure." Epstein has provoked even the student editors of the Harvard Law Review …

Dworkin's Domain, Philip E. Soper Jan 1987

Dworkin's Domain, Philip E. Soper

Reviews

No one has done more in the last twenty years to revitalize debates about how judges should and do decide cases than Ronald Dworkin. At the same time, no one has been more equivocal than Dworkin in explaining how a theory of adjudication bears on the dispute within legal theory about the connection between law and morality. This fine book continues both traditions.

Thinking (By Writing) About Legal Writing, Philip C. Kissam Jan 1987

Thinking (By Writing) About Legal Writing, Philip C. Kissam

Vanderbilt Law Review

The practice of law requires a good amount of original writing,and it is a commonplace today that much of this writing is done rather poorly. Charles Fried, the United States Solicitor General,has implied that much legal writing, especially in appellate briefs,is "turgid and boring."' John Nowak, a Professor of Law at the University of Illinois, has reiterated Fred Rodell's classic complaint that the writing in law reviews lacks both style and substance. More fundamentally, Steven Stark, in his Harvard Law Review comment, has argued that the style and substance of most legal writing are flawed by lawyers' ideological commitments to …
