"A fascinating look at dynamics within the court, showing how personalities and ideology can affect alliances and debates."
-Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

"More than any recent writer on the Court, [Jan Crawford Greenburg] seems to have mastered the arts of Kremlinology that are necessary to appreciate what goes on in this secretive institution. . . . Fascinating."

Reseña del editor:

A straightforward account of the struggle for control over the nation's highest court describes how Rehnquist's court proved disappointing to conservatives despite its seven Republican nominees, the story behind a series of failed Republican nominations, and George W. Bush's direct role in launching a conservative counter-revolution. Reprint.
