Letters to a Young Lawyer
Autor Alan M. Dershowitzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 apr 2005 – vârsta de la 13 ani
As
defender
of
both
the
righteous
and
the
questionable,
Alan
Dershowitz
has
become
perhaps
the
most
famous
and
outspoken
attorney
in
the
land.
Whether
or
not
they
agree
with
his
legal
tactics,
most
people
would
agree
that
he
possesses
a
powerful
and
profound
sense
of
justice.
In
this
meditation
on
his
profession,
Dershowitz
writes
about
life,
law,
and
the
opportunities
that
young
lawyers
have
to
do
good
and
do
well
at
the
same
time.We
live
in
an
age
of
growing
dissatisfaction
with
law
as
a
career,
which
ironically
comes
at
a
time
of
unprecedented
wealth
for
many
lawyers.
Dershowitz
addresses
this
paradox,
as
well
as
the
uncomfortable
reality
of
working
hard
for
clients
who
are
often
without
many
redeeming
qualities.
He
writes
about
the
lure
of
money,
fame,
and
power,
as
well
as
about
the
seduction
of
success.
In
the
process,
he
conveys
some
of
the
"tricks
of
the
trade"
that
have
helped
him
win
cases
and
become
successful
at
the
art
and
practice
of
"lawyering."
