Life Without Lawyers: Restoring Responsibility in America

How to restore the can-do spirit that made America great, from the author of the best-selling The Death of Common Sense.
Americans are losing the freedom to make sense of daily choicesâ€•teachers canâ€™t maintain order in the classroom, managers are trained to avoid candor, schools ban tag, and companies plaster inane warnings on everything: â€œRemove Baby Before Folding Stroller.â€

Philip K. Howardâ€™s urgent argument is full of examples, often darkly humorous. He describes the historical and cultural forces that led to this mess and lays out the basic shift in approach needed to fix it. Today we are flooded with legal threats that prevent us from taking responsibility. We must rebuild boundaries of law that protect an open field of freedom. The voices here will ring true to every reader. The analysis is powerful, and the solution unavoidable. Whatâ€™s at stake, Howard explains in this seminal book, is the vitality of American culture.
