Summary
"The core theme of this book is that the justices, both liberal and conservative, do not simply call balls and strikes, as Chief Justice Roberts memorably stated, in formulating their decisions. Instead, as shown in some 200 cases, they have expanded or limited prior precedent, created new rights, and eliminated others"-- Provided by publisher.
