In Against the Rules, journalist and bestselling author Michael Lewis explores the figures in American life who rely on the public's trust, whether in sports, in business, in the courtroom, or on TV. What happens when that trust erodes and we can no longer agree on what's fair and what's not? With wry humor, Lewis reveals the fascinating humans behind the public roles: the judge, the arbitrator, the scientist, the coach, the referee, and many more.
