Editorial Reviews

Review

;When the leading bankruptcy scholar of the past generation writes his magnum opus, The Unwritten Law of Corporate Reorganizations is what we get. Reaching back through the centuries, with an especially acute lens on the period from the late nineteenth century to today, Douglas Baird flips the conventional wisdom about corporate reorganization on its head, demonstrating that the solution to financial distress has not been technical legal rules; it has been the unwritten practices of generations of bankruptcy insiders. Baird tells the story in a way no other legal scholar can, with remarkable historical discoveries, vivid anecdotes, subtle analysis, and a prose style that makes The Unwritten Law of Corporate Reorganizations the most unlikely of page turners. It is destined to be a classic not just of bankruptcy, but of American business history.' David A. Skeel, S. Samuel Arsht Professor of Corporate Law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School

‘An insightful journey through over 200 years of debtors and creditors dealing with financial distress, with fascinating stories brilliantly illuminating the many ‘rules' governing modern restructuring practice. A thoroughly enjoyable must-read for understanding this crucial part of the American economy.' Richard Levin, Partner, Jenner & Block, and co-drafter of the Bankruptcy Code

‘… Baird’s account of unwritten law yields a framework for making sense of an otherwise puzzling and troubling tendency of bankruptcy law.’ Vincent S. J. Buccola, The Yale Law Journal

Book Description

Reveals the unwritten and hitherto inaccessible principles that govern the restructuring of large corporations in Chapter 11.
