As the ninth term of Chief Justice John Roberts comes to a close, Professor Laurence Tribe and co-author Joshua Matz have published a thought-provoking book that analyzes the significant constitutional changes that the Supreme Court has wrought since Roberts succeeded the late Chief Justice William Rehnquist in 2005. While predicting the future jurisprudence of the Supreme Court is perilous, the authors adroitly identify certain trends that, if realized, will permanently alter America’s legal landscape, particularly with respect to privacy and access to the courts.
The book is organized into nine chapters that each address a separate area of the law: equality, health care, campaign finance, freedom of speech, gun rights, presidential power, privacy, rights for sale (federalism), and access to justice. The authors weave into the narrative useful biographical sketches of the nine current justices and explain their ideological leanings.
