description: This book collects and reprints twenty-five funny law review articles from the past fifty years.  If "funny" and "law review article" sound like an oxymoron when used in the same sentence, that's only because you've never taken time to  how law students might have written the Gettysburg Address; whether the Framers deserved Legal Writing credit hours for the Constitution; or how many footnotes can be crammed into one sentence (via The World's Greatest Law Review Article ).The articles are arranged in five Law Students, Law Professors, Lawyers, Judges, and Legal Scholarship.Also included is a comprehensive bibliography of legal humor.  The cover is an original cartoon by noted artist Alan Gerson.Great gift for any student or practitioner of the law needing a lighter look at the legal side of life.
