Editorial Review: Product Description: Arguing that the 80 year-old Federal Arbitration Act badly needs major changes, the authors, who have previously written major articles on arbitration law and policy, set out their own views and argue among themselves about the necessary reforms of arbitration. The book contains draft legislation for use in international and domestic arbitration and detailed explanation of the precise justifications for proposed legislative changes. It also contains two proposals that might be deemed radical---to ban arbitration related to the purchase of products by consumers and to prohibit arbitration of employment disputes. Each proposal is vetted fully and critiqued by one or more of the other co-authors. Book Description: This is a book about changing the terms of American Arbitration Law. The book contains individual views of the four co-authors and criticisms of the individual recommendations of the authors. The book contains point and counterpoint and numerous controversial ideas. The authors present the competing arguments on some of the most controversial topics in arbitration---arbitration of employment disputes between employers and their former employees and arbitration of disputes between consumers and product sellers.
