Antonin Scalia's Jurisprudence Reviews

Both those who hate him and thosewho love him will inevitably learnmore about Justice Scalia and hiscommitment to text and tradition in interpretationthan they ever knew before. Thisis genuinely scholarly constitutional history,of an old-fashioned and rewarding sort.-Times Literary Supplement

Rossum's presentation is slanted but stillhelpful in its exploration of the use oftextualism by a key member of the SupremeCourt. Recommended for law, academic,and large public libraries.-Library Journal

Rossum's masterful study not onlyelucidates Scalia's theory of textualism andoriginalism, but shows how it plays out in awide range of situations. He makes apersuasive case that Scalia's influence-likethat of other great dissenters-may wellreach its height among the next generationof lawyers.-Mary Ann Glendon, authorof The Transformation of Family Law
