Sinopsis
Bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin takes you into the chambers of the most important--and secret--legal body in our country, the Supreme Court, and reveals the complex dynamic among the nine people who decide the law of the land.Just in time for the 2008 presidential election--where the future of the Court will be at stake--Toobin reveals an institution at a moment of transition, when decades of conservative disgust with the Court have finally produced a conservative majority, with major changes in store on such issues as abortion, civil rights, presidential power, and church-state relations.Based on exclusive interviews with justices themselves, The Nine tells the story of the Court through personalities--from Anthony Kennedy's overwhelming sense of self-importance to Clarence Thomas's well-tended grievances against his critics to David Souter's odd nineteenth-century lifestyle. There is also, for the first time, the full behind-the-scenes story of Bush v. Gore--and Sandra Day O'Connor's fateful breach with George W. Bush, the president she helped place in office. The Nine is the book bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin was born to write. A CNN senior legal analyst and New Yorker staff writer, no one is more superbly qualified to profile the nine justices.

Sobre Bookshelfillers
Nearly 20 years ago, our business was grown out of a love of books. Upon discovering the world of online auctions and independent book dealers, a passion for collecting had become renewed. This eventually led us to pursuing going into business ourselves. We loved the thrill of finding that title you never thought you would hold again, the excitement of that package hitting your front step, and we considered how it would feel to be on the other end of that process. We love idea of pairing the right book with the right reader, whether that be for studies, for travel, or for bedtime. We know the passion behind building a collection that defines your specific tastes as a proud reader. We feel very much a part of the community of book lovers around the world. We have grown our inventory over the years to thousands of titles that range from popular fiction and collectible children's books to educational and even antiquarian. We take pride in what we do because we love what we do and look forward to providing our customers with great books for years to come!
