Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

This new legal guide covers the gamut of legal issues of interest to consumers. The opening chapter on our rights and freedoms as Americans serves as an introduction for subsequent discussions on the kinds of legal problems many face today. Home ownership, automobiles, domestic relations, insurance, healthcare, and credit are a few of the topics examined. Contemporary phenomena like sperm banks, automated teller machines, and dread disease insurance policies are discussed in their legal context in plain English. Lists of state agencies that oversee health services, insurance, consumer protection, labor law, and protection of the aging are a pertinent addition. Each chapter provides a general overview of an area of law as well as a look at a way that law is applied to specific instances today. Similar in scope and content to You and the Law (Publications International, 1990), this is worth considering for most public libraries.
