Richard H. Weisberg, author of In Praise of Intransigence: The Perils of Flexibility, provides insight on how intransigence can benefit professional environments. http://global.oup.com/academic/product/in-praise-of-intransigence-9780199334988 Richard H. Weisberg has written about France during the Holocaust and has also litigated successfully in American federal courts on behalf of Holocaust-era victims. He is a pioneer in the Law and Literature movement. He holds a chair in Constitutional Law at the Cardozo School of Law. For some time, these three pursuits have combined in him to provoke thinking about the risks of limitless flexibility, both in behavior and in mainstream thought. © Oxford University Press
