A look inside

What a wonderful look inside the Supreme Court. It was a smooth read and kept me up at night. Facinating glimpse of our nation's higgest court and very close to being "required reading". Loved it.


Well-researched, gripping review of the modern supreme court

Once I started reading this book, I found it difficult to put it down. Toubin brings to life the personalities of each of the justices. His way of words constructs a reality where one feels as though they are in a court room or in a justice's chambers. After reading the book, I felt I had a good sense of how the court changed over the past three decades and how the court changed the country.

A book to necessarIly put on TO READ list

Not just for the law professionals, and those interested in politics ... This is a real book for everyone.






Great book.

The Nine is the best non-fiction book I have read in years. Toobins knows his material and is unbiased in his presentation. Sandra Day O'Connor comes across as a much more complicated woman than I had previously thought. Toobins left me very, very frightened about the current direction of the court.
