I suppose I should like this book, like the rest of those who believe that justice was not served in the Bush v. Gore decision, but I found it unpleasant and in some places, downright nasty. There was even one point where it appeared the author's conclusions led to removal of human rights from one group of people (women who would leave a bad marriage). Overall, there are much better books written on the topic. This author's attitude smacks too much of superiority and self-righteousness for his arguments to be compelling. ( ) Generally I am not a huge fan of Dershowitz, but this is a solid book. He looks at the decisions written by all the Supremes and then compares that analysis to the decision to stop the recount in Florida in November 2000. It's a disturbing look at how an institution as central as the Supreme Court is as suspectible to cronyism as every other branch of government. Antonin Scalia is a scourge on the nation. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
