Food for Thought
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book will have you laughing out loud while thinking about important issues related to the criminal justice system. Alan Young has managed to find that difficult balance that eludes most authors of this subject. His writing is funny, intelligent, clever and thought-provoking (and sometimes obscene, though not in the legal sense). This book is not just for lawyers - it's for all of us who value our rights and our freedom to choose how we live our lives. Kudos to Professor Young for having the courage to speak his mind and to stand up to his profession, take a bow, and then spit in its face!
Justice Defiled ... Delicious!

Astonishing! When I heard Alan Young on CBC's Here and Now Show, at first I thought he must be an unsuccessful lawyer ranting about the system. Then I found out that he's actually the same guy that defended Terry Jean Bedford in the 80's, and has all the important marijuana cases that keep hitting the news. And a Law Professor! Wow! When someone like this says there's something deeply wrong with our criminal justice system and the way lawyers are trained, I take notice. I bought the book a couple days ago and couldn't put it down. I always thought that there was some barrier and even mystery between lay people and the law, Alan Young confirmed my thoughts, and explains why. It's not me, it's the system. This book is a wake up call for Canada, and should be a turning point for change. I wish it was requisite reading for every citizen, politician, law student, police officer, and judge. Why aren't there more laywers like this?
