Featured Resource List

Gary D. Solis. The law of armed conflict : international humanitarian law in war. Cambridge University Press, 2010. KZ6385.S65 2010 This book takes the reader through essential questions of the law of armed conflict and international humanitarian law to an awareness of finer points of battlefield law. The U.S.-weighted text incorporates lessons from many nations and includes hundreds of cases from jurisdictions worldwide.

Thomas D. Morgan. The vanishing American lawyer. Oxford University Press, c2010. KF300.M67 2010 This book discusses the legal profession and the need for both law students and lawyers to adapt to the needs and expectations of clients in the future. The world needs people who understand institutions that create laws and how to access those institutions' works, but lawyers are no longer part of a profession that is uniquely qualified to advise on a broad range of distinctly legal questions. Clients will need advisors who are more specialized than many lawyers are today and who have more expertise in non-legal issues. Many of today's lawyers do not have a special ability to provide such services.
