Reviews
’A thorough survey of the Supreme Court’s role in shaping the distinctive military justice system, and the surprising interactions between seemingly extraneous events and the uniformed services, this book will likely end up on the shelf of every military attorney, but should also be part of the education of everyone with an interest in how the United States military governs itself.’ John M. Bickers, Northern Kentucky University, USA ’Josh Kastenberg has produced a fascinating and often provocative study of military law that fills a yawning gap in the existing literature. Because of his exquisite grasp of both law and history he is able to present a fresh perspective on judicial developments in military law that is simply unavailable elsewhere. What is more is that he designed his approach to be accessible not just to legal scholars, but also to students, policymakers, as well as the general public. This is sure to be a must read for anyone interested in understanding how the judiciary shapes the legal architecture of American military governance as the armed forces address the extraordinarily complex challenges of the 21st century.’ Maj. Gen. Charles J. Dunlap, Jr., USAF (Ret.) and Duke University, USA
