The Judicial Process: Law, Courts, and Judicial Politics is a
complete survey of law, courts, and the judicial process in the
United States and across the globe. Its interdisciplinary approach
emphasizes the dynamic role law, legal theory, and courts play in
the adversarial system and constitutional framework. Especially
attractive for introductory law and courts' courses, this newly
revised second edition presents significant insights into
contemporary issues of American and comparative law and politics,

appointments, and the scope and application of same-sex marriage,
immigration, capital punishment and abortion rights. In addition to
photos, cartoons, charts, and graphs, the analysis includes
distinctive "Contemporary Controversies" and "In Comparative
Perspective" boxes that examine cutting-edge topics like the
world's legal systems, the politicization of the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Court, Veteran's and problem-solving
courts, Title IX sexual assaults on campus, political money in
state judicial campaigns, the growing influence of the Federalist
Society, "pay as you go" criminal justice, justiciability and
animal rights, the dispute pyramid, the global impact of jury
