" This is an outstanding book for anyone who has watched the news or read a newspaper involving some insane ruling by a court and has asked themselves "How in the world did we get to this point?" This book does an excellent job of taking some of the major issues or our time (abortion, free speech, guns, etc.) which have gotten so convoluted from what our Founding Fathers intended, and shows how judges have used precedents (stare decisis) that have had erroneous rulings and subsequent courts based their decisions on bad precedents instead of adhering to the Constitution and overturning those bad rulings. A wonderful and fascinating book and an easy read. "

" Levin does his usual stellar job. A well-researched and reasoned presentation of the slow and subtle power grab by the "progressive" leaning court. Especially helpful in light of recent rulings and the pending SCOTUS decision on Obamacare. Highly recommended. "

" This right-wing rant is the result of shallow reasoning, biased reporting, and disingenuous scholarship. Levin's prejudice and combativeness ruin his effort. He conveniently dismisses all of the Supreme Court's so-called liberal decisions with which he disagrees on ideological grounds as "judicial activism," while ignoring the modern judicial activism of conservatives. In fact, Levin actually fails to mention the greatest judicial activism in American history: When five conservative Republican appointees of the Supreme Court selected George Walker Bush as President of the United States in 2000. Levin's book is a waste of time; and more significantly, it is dangerous because the uninitiated may believe it to be accurate and the result of bona fide legal scholarship. Fortunately, I did not buy this book, but read a copy from my public library. "

" This was a good book that brought up many necessary issues within the judicial branch of our governmental checks and balances. The only problem is that this guy is clearly your typical right wing-nut. I can't stand when right wing-nuts complain about left wing-nuts and don't see the hypocrisy. The judicial system certainly has taken at full speed down the path toward trying to corrupt our constitution and laws with it's crybaby, bleeding heart policies and that needed to be said, it continues to need to be said, but the best way to say it is with a common sense "what's best for the majority" solution (which neither side is intelligent enough to understand) and not a all abortion is bad because jesus said so approach. If you're looking to learn some facts and hear some good points and you can get past the religious bull****... or if you like the religious bull**** then you should read this book. "
