Descriere magazin:
Fall 1971. Richard Nixon is in the White House. Five George Washington University law students form Students Challenging Regulatory Agency Procedures (SCRAP). SCRAP\'s intent: to challenge the corporate greed of the nation\'s railroads and the failure of the government to protect the environment, especially through compliance with the newly enacted National Environmental Policy Act. Author Neil Thomas Proto, then SCRAP\'s chair, draws from contemporaneous notes and transcripts and builds a narrative with photographs and actual dialogue to take you through eight months of battle against the government, powerful law firms, the nation\'s railroads, and national environmental organizations-all while SCRAP\'s members are studying law, only blocks from the disquiet in the White House and amid the threat and reality of anti-war demonstrations. Having enough of the deceit and the empty commitments of change, in spring 1972, SCRAP sues the United States. As success emerges, SCRAP\'s adversaries stymied, the critical legal question remains: Does SCRAP have standing to sue-the right to be in court at all? That question reaches the Supreme Court of the United States.
