The Calling of Law

’At a time of great change within the legal profession and legal education this book provides a valuable resource for all those who wish to navigate those changes. The multidisciplinary and international approach provides a broad spectrum of material to draw upon. I recommend its use to help inform the design of courses.’ David Amos, City University London, UK ’By seeking to reinvigorate the notion of law as a calling, this thought-provoking collection of essays, authored by an international group of experts in legal and medical education, takes seriously the complexities of embedding ethics and professionalism in the law curriculum, and offers some important examples of transformative interventions using live clinic, simulation and technology-enhanced learning. Above all, however, it serves as a timely reminder that vocational legal education is more than just a discrete phase of training: it demands a larger commitment by educators to developing a state of mind and set of value commitments in students throughout the educational process.’ Julian Webb, University of Warwick, UK ’All the chapters are well put together and persuasive and each provides a comprehensive bibliography at the end... the book is a thought-provoking collection of essays and one which I would recommend to anyone with an interest in legal education, the legal professions and the future of legal services.’ The Law Teacher
