The Book Reviews Are In The Current Issue Of California Litigation.
California Litigation, the journal of the California Lawyers Association, has published an article with three of my book reviews in its current issue, Vol. 32, No. 2, 2019. With the permission of California Litigation, I am making the article available if you click here. Any opinions expressed are those of the author alone, and for which the author alone, and not the California Lawyers Association, is responsible.
From the article:
"Our government has been described as an insurance conglomerate and a large army. A core function of government is identifying and managing risk to protect the public from harm. The thread tying together the three books under review is government’s ability to manage risk. Dark Tide, about a horrific industrial accident, has been reissued in time to mark the 100th anniversary of the great molasses flood of 1919 that killed 21 people and devastated the North End of Boston. The Poison Squad, about the efforts to protect the public from dangerous and adulterated food, focuses on a heroic public servant. And, The Fifth Risk is about contemporary neglect, incompetence, and short-sightedness in federal agencies."
