High Principle, Low Politics, and the Emergence of the Supreme Court

This book tells the remarkable story of how and why the Supreme Court came to be created; and in doing so taps into a rich seam of social and political history. It also provides an insight, free of legal jargon, into how the court has "performed" in the light of both the fears and the expectations which greeted its arrival.

Aceasta carte spune povestea remarcabila a modului si motivului pentru care Curtea Suprema a fost creata; si, facand acest lucru, intra intr-o imbinare bogata de istorie sociala si politica. De asemenea, ofera o perspectiva, lipsita de jargon juridic, asupra modului in care curtea a „performat” atat in lumina temerilor, cat si a asteptarilor care i-au salutat sosirea.
