Industry Reviews "[Howard's] argument is worthy of attention not because it is entirely convincing, but because he states, with unusual lucidity, a position that is widely and perhaps increasingly held....Yet Howard's argument has two serious vices. His depiction of modern American life is greatly overstated...Moreover, Howard relies far too much on colorful anecdotes, and offers no systematic argument that what he likes, a system of 'authority,' would be better than a system surrounded by legally enforceable rules....None of this means that Howard is wrong. But it does mean that he has not established that he is right." New Republic - Cass R. Sunstein (07/09/2001)
