| Summary: | "LoPucki provides a scathing attack on reorganization practice. Courting Failure recounts how lawyers, managers and judges have transformed Chapter 11.

LoPucki not only questions the wisdom of these changes but also the free market ideology that supports much of the general regulation of the corporate sector."--Robert Rasmussen, University of Chicago Law School. |
