The Future of Law by Richard Susskind
Demonstrates why the future of the law is digital. This book shows why and how IT is radically altering and will alter further the practice of law and the administration of justice. It explores the implications, opportunities, and challenges presented by the information society as it changes how law will be practised and justice administered.
'The value of the paperback edition of "The Future of Law" is twofold, for it contains not only the visionary words Professor Susskind originally wrote, but also a long and entirely new Preface bringing the book right up to dateIn my view it is essential reading for all who wish to see our justice system improved, beacuse I am convinced that the problems of cost, delay and inaccessibility cannot be successfully tackled without taking full advantage of Information Technology.' Lord Saville of Newdigate, Chairman of ITAC (Information and Technology Courts Committe) February 1998
