Description

In this first general history of legal education, Stevens traces the development of law schools, the legal profession, and legal thought, relating their evolution to intellectual, political, and social trends.

He describes how the establishment gained power over education after 1920 and how, in the past two decades, both students and the practicing profession have questioned this authority.

He also examines the implications of the ""legal revolution"" and new opportunities for women and minorities. |This book uniquely reveals the history and legacy of the infamous Tuskegee syphilis study through a comprehensive collection of documents: articles, reports, letters, and newspaper accounts, as well as works of fiction, poetry, and drama.
