Contracts, patents, regulations, disclosures, and legislation are often premised on the foundational assumption that 'more information is better'. These legal programs do not insist, however, that the information and associated communications be comprehensible. This book outlines the problem of incomprehensibility across legal fields and offers suggestions for reform.

Explains how the law often encourages actors to be incomprehensible in ways that actually undermine the purpose of the laws themselves.
