Justice Antonin Scalia and the Conservative Revival

lots of good stuff and some disagreement

Antonin Scalia
Princeton University Press
, 1998
Good, but...
First of all, let me make it clear that I think Scalia is a brilliant Justice. I have a very high level of respect for him intellectually. However, I think that he is too conservative, as is this book. I still think people should read it, because I advocate hearing ...

The Political Thought of Justice Antonin Scalia: A Hamiltonian on the Supreme Court
James B. Staab
Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc.
, 2006
Very Interesting Analysis
I was an undergraduate student in Dr. Staab's courses at UCM. This work reads in a similar manner to the discussions that I recall. There are a number of books available on Justice Scalia that read more like biographies of the man or his political philosophy. This ...
