Condition: Used

Known for shedding light on the link among the courts, public policy, and the political environment, Judicial Process in America provides a comprehensive overview of the American judiciary. In this Tenth Edition, authors Robert A. Carp, Ronald Stidham, Kenneth L. Manning, and Lisa M. Holmes examine the recent Supreme Court rulings on same-sex marriage and health care subsidies, the effect of three women justices on the Courts patterns of decision, and the policy-making role of state tribunals. Original data on the decision-making behavior of the Obama trial judges-which are unavailable anywhere else-ensure this texts position as a standard bearer in the field.
