評分掃盲書,清楚明白好看
評分簡明扼要、主旨清晰,讀時酣暢淋灕,讀完意猶未盡,也的確如這本書的目的“stimulating”相符,值得一看。
Linda Greenhouse began covering the Supreme Court for The New York Times in 1978. With the exception of two years during the mid-1980's, during which she covered Congress, she served as the paper's regular Supreme Court correspondent until 2008. Previously, she covered local and state government and politics for the Times in New York, and was chief of the newspaper's legislative bureau in Albany. She has appeared as a Washington Week panelist since 1980.
She is a graduate of Radcliffe College, where she currently serves on the advisory committee to the Schlesinger Library on the History of American Women. She earned a Master of Studies in Law degree from Yale Law School, and has several honorary degrees.
For her coverage of the Court, she was awarded a Pulitzer Prize in Journalism (beat reporting) in 1998. In 2004, she received the Goldsmith Career Award for Excellence in Journalism from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard and the John Chancellor Award for Excellence in Journalism from the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania.
For 30 years, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Linda Greenhouse chronicled the activities of the U.S. Supreme Court and its justices as a correspondent for the New York Times. In this Very Short Introduction, she draws on her deep knowledge of the court's history and of its written and unwritten rules to show readers how the Supreme Court really works. Greenhouse offers a fascinating institutional biography of a place and its people - men and women - who exercise great power but whose names and faces are unrecognized by many Americans and whose work often appears cloaked in mystery. How do cases get to the Supreme Court? How do the justices go about deciding them? What special role does the chief justice play? What do the law clerks do? How does the court relate to the other branches of government? Greenhouse answers these questions by depicting the justices as they confront deep constitutional issues or wrestle with the meaning of confusing federal statutes. Throughout, the author examines many individual Supreme Court cases to illustrate points under discussion, ranging from Marbury v. Madison, the seminal case which established judicial review, to the recent District of Columbia v. Heller (2008), which struck down the District of Columbia's gun-control statute and which was, surprisingly, the first time in its history that the Court issued an authoritative interpretation of the Second Amendment. To add perspective, Greenhouse also compares the Court to foreign courts, revealing interesting differences. For instance, no other country in the world has chosen to bestow life tenure on its judges. A superb overview packed with telling details, this volume offers a matchless introduction to one of the pillars of American government.
译本很短,对最高法院的解读限于以美国《宪法》第三条规定的范围,并无其它解读。总而言,内容过少,出版时可能为使小本略显厚度,而附了大量英文索引入译词,并将原版英文附注于后,正文内容约296页,中文译文仅占105页,原文其它约190页,可见内容之少,仅约三分之一余。
評分《美国最高法院通识读本》,琳达·格林豪斯著,何帆译,译林出版社,2013年7月第1版。 对美国宪法与最高法院感兴趣始自在墨尔本留学期间,还特地选了一门宪法比较。记得图书馆有本厚达6、700页的书,只讲宪法第一修正案。当然,后来知道,这没什么奇怪的,讲这方面的书多了去...

評分对于英美法系和美国最高法院,平时在好莱坞电影,美剧和TVB律政剧里面多有涉猎,但是多数人容易流于浅表,产生很多臆测的观念,少有机会系统梳理其中的来龙去脉,也容易产生一些不切实际的美好想法。 美国最高法院通识读本给了一个这样的机会,书很短,通读过后,...
