description: Philip K. Howard, founding partner at the New York law firm of Howard, Darby, and Levin, has carefully gathered the evidence for our frustration with governmental laws and paperwork. He passes judgement on a legal system that is suffocating America. Tracing the sources of this paralysis from the Bill of Rights to OSHA and the EPA, he tallies the cost of conforming to mountains of regulations claiming to protect us, and paints a stark picture of the problems that have resulted from the legal quest for uniformity and equality.
