Bücher von Nancy Maveety

Noted legal expert Nancy Maveety has written the first book devoted to alcohol in the nation's highest court, The US Supreme Court. She shows that what the justices do and say about alcohol provides important lessons about their times, our times, and our "constitutional cocktail" of limited government power and individual rights.

This work analyses the judicial contributions of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the first woman to sit on the US Supreme Court. It describes how she used accommodationist decision-making strategies to influence the development of both constitutional law and the Court's norms of collegiality.
