  I SBN: 978-0-19-286472-7 Verdict :  👍👍   This book is definitely a must if you are working or consulting in the Legal Industry or for those involved in Legal Tech . There are some excellent snippets in this book - In all honesty, this did take me a while to read, not being a lawyer, I found the material a bit repetitive especially as I had my 4 decades of technology hat on.   Here are my favourite snippets or salient points; “It’s not easy to change a wheel on a moving car ” p96. “It will be hard to convince a group of millionaires that their business model is broken” p98 “This can drive at the heart of the profit model of large firms, who rely on o their junior lawyers doing the routine tasks” p99 Online Courts and Online Dispute Resolution – “A Court becomes a service rather than a place”  p161. If you are a young Lawyer, starting out, I would definitely invest in this book as it may help guide the direction you choose as the profession transforms over the next few decades.
