The Rise of Modern Judicial Review by Christopher Wolfe

This major history of judicial review, revised to include the Rehnquist court, shows how modern courts have used their power to create new 'rights with fateful political consequences.' Originally published by Basic Books.
Admirably free of the polemics and vindictive reductivism swirling about current issues of 'intent', 'incorporation', and judicial review..Wolfe asks the large questions: e.g., whether the Constitution itself is an adequate basis for modern government. Agreement may come hard but this thoughtful, balanced book illuminates the great debate. * Library Journal *
At once comprehensive, historically rich, and theoretically deep....To anyone who cares about the current sorry state of constitutional law and theory, this book is must reading. -- Gary McDowell, University of London
A clear, readable and fair account of the development of judicial review. * American Political Science Review *
Christopher Wolfe is Professor of Political Science at Marquette University.
