Judicial Process in America

Judicial Process in America

Known for shedding light on the link among the courts, public policy, and the political environment, <strong>Judicial Process in America</strong> provides a comprehensive overview of the American judiciary.  In this<strong> Tenth Edition</strong>, authors Robert A. Carp, Ronald Stidham, Kenneth L. Manning, and Lisa M. Holmes examine the recent Supreme Court rulings on same-sex marriage and health care subsidies, the effect of three women justices on the Court’s patterns of decision, and the policy-making role of state tribunals. Original data on the decision-making behavior of the Obama trial judges—which are unavailable anywhere else—ensure this text’s position as a standard bearer in the field.
