The Soul of Creativity: Forging a Moral Rights Law for the United States

Roberta Rosenthal Kwall (DePaul University College of Law). The Soul of Creativity: Forging a Moral Rights Law for the United States (Stanford University Press, 2009).

"Professor Kwall makes a refreshing and persuasive argument for clearer legal rights of recognition for authors, and she reaches far beyond studies that justify conventional moral rights. Kwall gracefully unites perspectives from literature, art, philosophy, and religion to reveal surprising deficiencies in the law and the complications of finding solutions.”
–Kenneth D. Crews, Columbia University
