Reviews
"Entertaining . . . breezy. . . . The essential charm of Geoghegans writing is his honest, self-deprecatory style." The Washington Monthly
"Good fun . . . [Geoghegans] a sharp thinker. . . . See You in Court makes a good case that deregulation has damaged the justice system in many ways." Chicago Reader
