He offers his opinion of the framers' original intentions?that the judiciary play a robust role in curbing abuses of government power and protecting individual rights?and provides both a historical perspective and a look at the courts' decisions on today's most contentious issues. 410 0$aHoover Institution Press publication ;$v621. 606 $aJudges$xSelection and appointment$zUnited States 606
