  • "The Unpublished Opinions of the Rehnquist Court provides a behind-the-scenes look at the Supreme Court, showing how changes between the drafts and the Justices' final opinions have created substantial differences in the outcome of the Court's decisions. As with his two previous works The Unpublished Opinions of the Warren Court and The Unpublished Opinions of the Burger Court, Bernard Schwartz uses private court papers to follow these decisions and explore the key role and responsibility of the Chief Justice. The Unpublished Opinions of the Rehnquist Court serves to clarify and explore the actual operation of the judicial decision-making process. It will be fascinating and informative reading for attorneys, judges, law students, politicians and anyone interested in the mechanics of the nation's highest Court."
