Origins of the Federal Judiciary cover

Any discussion of the factors contributing to the longevity of the US Constitution must devote great attention to the development of the federal judiciary. Yet surprisingly, little has been written about the origins of the Judiciary Act of 1789, the legislation that established the federal court system. This volume analyses the Judiciary Act from political, economic and legal perspectives, bringing together the insights of leading scholars from a number of different fields.

This book is an important contribution because of the overall quality and depth of its essays. It provides valuable and quite various insights into a wide range of issues. * The Law and Politics Book Review *
