No other reference on the Court offers so much detail and insight in such a readable format. Updated through the 20082009 term, this classic resource explains everything readers need to know about the Supreme Court, from its origins and how it functions to the people who have shaped it and the impact of its decisions on American life and the path of U.S. constitutional law.
