The Nine by Jeffrey Toobin

The Nine by Jeffrey Toobin

Acclaimed journalist Jeffrey Toobin takes us into the chambers of the most important--and secret--legal body in our country, the Supreme Court, revealing the complex dynamic among the nine people who decide the law of the land. An institution at a moment of transition, the Court now stands at a crucial point, with major changes in store on such issues as abortion, civil rights, and church-state relations. Based on exclusive interviews with the justices and with a keen sense of the Court's history and the trajectory of its future, Jeffrey Toobin creates in The Nine a riveting story of one of the most important forces in American life today.

The Oath, The Nine, Too Close to Call, A Massive Conspiracy, and The Run of His Life are among Jeffrey Toobin's best-selling novels. He works as a staff writer for The New Yorker and as a CNN senior legal expert. In New York, he lives with his family.
