Reviews
Legal Education scholarship has grown and developed enormously in recent decades, and this text is a significant contribution to this continued development.' SCOLAG Legal Journal The Moral Imagination and the Legal Life examines innovative ways to incorporate non-textual and non-legal materials such as visual art, literature, film, performing arts, and simulations into law school curricula. For those interested in how to deepen moral perception, this edited collection provides a wealth of new ideas and theoretical insights.' Deborah L. Rhode, Stanford Law School, USA 'Together with its companion volume The Arts and the Legal Academy, this collection is essential reading for anyone concerned about legal education in these times when quantifiable student satisfaction often trumps the quality of teaching. Bankowski and his colleagues argue forcefully that there need not be a contradiction between the two: quality legal education conducted with imagination can be a deeply satisfying experience.' Panu Minkkinen, University of Helsinki, Finland
