"Divorce Lawyers at Work offers a rich, vivid account of the changing nature of family law practice. It will be invaluable to those interested in understanding the legal profession and the operation of the legal system, warts and all, in one of the most emotionally fraught legal arenas. It also would be an excellent companion to anyone suffering the travails of a divorce--and an accurate (if sometimes unflattering) mirror for the lawyers who represent them." --Richard L. Abel, Cornell Professor of Law, UCLA

"This is, first of all, a superb study of one segment of the practicing bar--divorce lawyers--but it also addresses a host of questions about the meaning of professionalism and the contemporary tensions within the practice of law. Every scholar of the legal profession must read this book. It also will be of immense interest to almost every practicing lawyer and, indeed, to students trying to find out what the real practice of law is all about." --Sanford Levinson, University of Texas Law School

"How do the demands and expectations of divorcing people in the U.S. intersect with the practice of divorce lawyers? This book offers a learned answer to a question that has occupied much speculation. We now have a comprehensive study to inform our relentless desire to understand how legal practice constitutes the demise of marriage."--Christine Harrington, Associate Professor of Politics, and Director, Institute for Law and Society, New York University

"Mather, McEwen, and Maiman have written an invaluable book for scholars and practitioners alike. Everyday, divorce lawyers face conflicts about how to balance contending demands from clients, colleagues, and courts. In this thoughtful, probing, and important book, the authors demonstrate that the norms of professional collegiality are alive and well--if in multiple and complicated ways."--Carroll Seron, author of The Business of Practicing Law: The Work Lives of Solo and Small-Firm Attorneys

"The topic is of great interest not only to those concerned with the practice of law, but also with broader social welfare interests in the management of the divorce process, and with a sociological interest in the development and pressures on the legal profession. The authors are in the first rank in their field, and write with clarity and authority. Their book is an important contribution to the field."--Mavis Maclean, Director, Oxford Center for Family Law and Policy

Little Love Song is a wonderful book to give to anyone you care about, regardless of gender, age, or relationship. Through beautiful and vivid imagery and lyrics, it shows the simple nature of love. Most wonderful is the ending.

This book is as jaded and contrived as Dr Peirce's class. There is only one chapter worth reading #7, the rest of the book serves absolutely no value. Furthermore, I agree with the previous reviewer that Dr. Peirce makes some very strong statements in his class. However, why didn't the put them in his book? I guess other professors in the field would have laughed at him. Do not buy this book..........and save yourself 15 weeks of torture by not taking his class at Nova............MBA99

This book is a good general overview of strategic management but lacks well thought out insight into what makes a strategy successful. For example in class Dr Pearce calls SWAT analysis worthless. If that is the case then why doesn't he say that in this book? Furthermore, chapter 7 is the only worthwhile chapter in the book. But even then it lacks sufficient depth to be useful to a student or practitioner of strategic management.
