Title: Both a history lesson and a psychology lesson-enjoyable read.
Review: Very much enjoyed the book. The history lesson it provides are a description of the pulse and perspective of this country in the time frame that book discusses, as well as the major issues the nation was facing at the time. The psychology lesson is insight into how these judges, who I certainly took to have a measure of impartiality, still remained political animals (and still very human)-they decided cases not on principals but on how they felt about issues and where they stood on the political spectrum. Though this cuts away at the idealism I had about the sanctity of the Supreme Court, it was a reminder about what they were doing-laying down judgment, which at its very heart is about one's interpretation and feeling about an issue.
