Abstract
The "Perspectives" section of this issue developed from the Editors' concern with the ever-increasing attacks upon the traditional tort system as a mechanism for dispensing just remedies to injured individuals. Our writers have focused on two areas of major concern: toxic torts and medical malpractice. Although we strove for a balance of viewpoints, our writers overwhelmingly favor the tort system as the appropriate remedial scheme in these two areas and, for the most part, reject reforms designed to benefit individual classes of tortfeasors. Their views are offered to stimulate continued debate on this important topic.
