In this episode, Bill Childs, a partner at Bowman and Brooke LLP and an adjunct professor at Mitchell Hamline School of Law, discusses his new casebook "Recreation and Risk," which is published by Carolina Academic Press. The book provides all the material for a law school class on the law of amusement parks, which covers torts, contracts, insurance, criminal law, and more. Childs begins by explaining how he became interested in amusement parks and the legal issues surrounding them. Then he explains why the subject matter makes for such an effective law school class, with a significant practical and experiential element. Childs is on Bluesky.
