"This original book. . . finds surprising treasures hidden in lawyers' ways of knowing."--Mary Ann Glendon, Harvard Law School
"Joseph Vining's voice is a strong and different one--one that has the power to break the dominant patterns of jurisprudence. . . . His meditative illustrations, which are aimed at establishing that law is a response to persons, are the work of a lawyer, drawn from a lawyer's practice. Vining conveys with conviction and passion what all lawyers assume in order to do their work. Lawyers at any level of practice will profit from reading this book."--John T. Noonan, Jr., U.S. Circuit Judge
"From Newton's Sleep is one of the most important books ever written about law as a practice that involves whole persons and engages the emotions, imagination, and spirit as well as the mind. It is--what is even rarer--a wise book, with much to teach lawyers about their profession and all of us about how to live humanely in our world.... A superb accomplishment."--H. Jefferson Powell, Duke University
