Reviews

"""This superb work of synthesis addresses simultaneously and comparatively the history of legal education in the two major legal traditions of the Western World. It is an important contribution to the preparation of English-speaking law students, and the learning of legal experts and people interested in legal history and the history of education more generally, both inside their own legal tradition and inside that of Latin America and continental Europe."" —Victor Uribe-Uran, Florida International College of Law ""Pérez-Perdomo's comparative account of the history of legal education, spanning from ancient Rome to the present, and encompassing Europe, the United States, and Latin America, makes an important and much-needed contribution to the literature. Both broad in scope and tightly written, it packs a punch."" —Amalia D. Kessler, Stanford Law School"
