Narrowing the Nation's Power by John T Noonan
Presents a tale of how a cohesive majority of the Supreme Court has cut back the power of Congress and enhanced the autonomy of the fifty states.
"John TNoonan, Jr. brings impeccable scholarly and judicial credentials to his dramatic accusation that five members of the Supreme Court are systematically thwarting justice to Americans through a states rights policy that is essentially political and without basis in the Constitution. Judge Noonan's stature as a leading conservative thinker gives added prestige to this compact, lively and riveting account."-Norman Dorsen, Stokes Professor of Law, New York University; President of the ACLU, 1976-1991
