Description

Legal textbooks have always been expensive but these days, the cost of a new commercially-published antitrust law casebook can range from $300 to $500. What if a high-quality casebook were available at little or no cost? With the support of the ABA Antitrust Law Section, NYU Law School Professors Christopher Sprigman and Daniel Francis recently completed the world’s first openly-licensed antitrust law casebook. Listen to this episode as they talk with co-hosts Alicia Downey and Sarah Zhang about this important project and whether eliminating the expense of traditional casebooks might lead to an increase in law students taking antitrust and potentially pursuing careers in the field. With special guests: Daniel Francis, Assistant Professor of Law, New York University School of Law Christopher Jon Sprigman, Murray and Kathleen Bring Professor of Law, New York University School of Law, and Co-Director, Engelberg Center on Innovation Law and Policy Related Links: Daniel Francis & Christopher Jon Sprigman, Antitrust Principles, Cases and Materials Hosted by: Alicia Downey, Downey Law LLC and Sarah Zhang, Baker Botts L.L.P.
