This work examines judicial power as an integral part of America's increasingly anxious and intolerant society. Nagel argues that judicial decisions are often an effort to stifle disagreement and to censor important beliefs and important traditions. Covering controversial topics, the analysis crosses conventional political and philosophic lines.
