A Third Programme enquiry by William Plowden
Fourth of five enquiries into education for some of the professions
Why is there such dissatisfaction with the education of our lawyers? Are they simply being inadequately trained, or are they being trained for the wrong job? Could changes in their training change the role of lawyers in society? Practising lawyers, university teachers, and students talk about the defects of the present system and about ways of improving it.
Among the speakers are:
PROFESSOR J. N. D. ANDERSON PROFESSOR R. S. BROWN PATRICK LEFEVRE
CHARLES MORRISON HOWARD OWENS
PROFESSOR T. B. SMITH PROFESSOR W. TWINING J. F. WARREN
