Lawyers, technologists, information professionals, software developers, judges, investigators, law students - you all should have this book on your shelf.The so-called "information explosion" is bigger than even the most exaggerated reviews you may have read. The problem is, the legal system (and its practitioners) haven't adjusted to it. Starting with the Zubulake series of decisions in the early 2000's, the scope and severity of the legal system's antiquated views of digital information - what's relevant, what's not, and how to tell the difference - has become increasingly apparent. Recent changes in court rules have heightened awareness of the problem and the risks of continuing to pretend that relevant information exists only in the paper, document-like formats that many lawyers stubbornly refuse to move past.This book describes the challenges of dealing with unfathomable amounts of information in the context of litigation. It has huge value beyond the law-student marketplace. If you've never opened a legal textbook, this should be your first: once you become familiar with its case-based approach, you can begin to see how leading jurists (including the authors) are addressing the unique challenges of adapting to the intersection of law, technology and justice.If you are ever involved with civil litigation - as a party, a corporate witness, an attorney, etc. - this book is a crucial tool that you shouldn't overlook.READ THIS BOOK
