"I read this book as a lay person hoping to shed some light on all the current discussions about "activist judges" on the Supreme Court and the proper role of the judicial branch in our system. This book definitely helped.
I particularly thought the organization of the chapters into discussions focusing on one method or set of methods at a time was useful and made an otherwise dense, esoteric topic somewhat more accessible. Still, while it wasn't a hard read necessarily, it was pretty dry in places."
"cardozo, the famous former supreme court justice, shatters the myth of law's objectivity. instead, he argues that law has a "subconscious," that is, the underlying philsophies that drive judges whose duty it is to interpret law."
