Kansas City, MO Author Publishes Law Poetry

Beware the Commerciality Doctrine and Other Nonprofit Law Poetry, a new book by Bruce R. Hopkins, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Welcome to the world of nonprofit law, summarized here in a form loosely poetical. Beware the Commerciality Doctrine and Other Nonprofit Law Poetry sheds new light on the world of nonprofit law. Some of these offerings read more like inside jokes – how rude! – than one’s customary poem. Delightfully unique, entertaining, and enlightening, these poems and prose may not fully explain the ins-and-outs of law, but they certainly offer a closer look at the sentiment and realities of nonprofit law.
