Summary
"Matched with Scalias brilliance was a rare judicial humilitythe conviction that the law should not be based on any judges whim or preference but on the original intent of the Constitutions Framers. In many of his dissents, he sounded the alarm against judicial activism, relentlessly defending the rights reserved by the Constitution to the people and their states. In Scalias Court, Kevin Ring has assembled the great jurists best and most powerful opinions, showcasing the quotable justices take on issues of enduring importance, including contentious constitutional debates that continue today." -- Book jacket
