Is Sommas lawsuit simply designed to get publicity to increase the sales of Sommas books?
The lawyers representing Great Ormond Street Hospital want Somma to stop publishing her book. We want to make sure she is free to publish her book. Obviously, if she is free to publish, she will sell more books. But given the demands of the lawyers representing the Hospital, Emily Somma had no choice but to sue to defend her rights. She spent 20 years writing her book and bringing this book to market.
