Reviews

Edited by a distinguished constitutional law scholar and a distinguished scholar of public education ... . these essays provide an excellent window into Scalia's jurisprudence. If a reader wants to understand what is distinctive about Sclaia's jurisprudence and why he is controversial, this short book is an excellent introduction. It is ideal for students of the Supreme Court and general readers who want an introduction to the intellectual currents swirling on the current Supreme Court. (M. M. Feeley, Choice, Vol. 56 (1), September, 2018)
