Summary: Law-makers: Lighten Up!
Comment: Not a law book, not a reference...Just a reminder that when it comes to making the rules, it's easy to get carried away!

With election season upon us, it's good to be reminded that it's possible to look pretty silly when you try to regulate everybody's behavior all the time.

This is a book just for fun, filled with humorous illustrations.
Send a copy to your favorite politician!

Summary: Save your money
Comment: I purchased this book as a gift for my mother-in-law, a retired judge. It is fortunate I previewed the book before I sent it on, or she would have sentenced me to the workhouse. This book is an absolute waste of time and money.

The author apparently collected statutes from a variety of sources, and spends 90 pages usually listing one sentence summaries with no reference and little organization. Examples from this book include:

"In Marblehead, Mass., it is illegal to cross the street on Sunday, unless it is absolutely necessary."

"In Atlanta, it is against the law to secure a giraffe to a telephone pole or a street lamp."

And it goes on and on. Forget about this book, and save your money.
