Legal Commentary

Many thanks to Orly Lobel, Melissa Hart, Noah Zatz, and especially Steven Greenhouse for their terrific participation in our book club for "The Big Squeeze."  We touched on a lot of facets of the book, and we were fortunate to get such thoughtful and considered responses from the author.  I hope the club will be a resource for folks in the future who are reading the book for class or for enlightenment.

Here's a wrap-up of all the posts for the club:

• Introductory post
• Zatz: Public Responsibility for Stopping the Big Squeeze
• Bodie: Causes of the "Big Squeeze"
