INSPIRED BY THE ORIGINAL HIT SONG
"W"hen Beth Thompson's only son, James, goes missing in action in
Afghanistan, she is left with her prayers, hopes, fears . . . and
letters.
Mother and son have been writing since boot camp. James writes of
his struggle to become a confident soldier and of his concern for
his young wife and their unborn child. Beth, like any mom, praises
her son's courage even as she frets for his safety.
Even after James disappears, Beth is comforted by a daily ritual of
writing him about her feelings, faith, and attempts to maintain a
normal life when nothing is really normal but the waiting.
Based on platinum-selling singer Mark Schultz's hit song "Letters
from War," this powerfully emotional and timely story reveals how
faith sustains in even the darkest of circumstances.

Precedent is an important tool of judicial decision making and
reasoning in common law systems such as the United States. Instead
of having each court decide cases anew, the rule of precedent or
stares decisis dictates that similar cases should be decided
similarly. Adherence to precedent promotes several values,
including stability, reliability, and uniformity, and it also
serves to constrain judicial discretion. Yet while adherence to
precedent is important, there are some cases where the United
States Supreme Court does not follow it when it comes to
constitutional reasoning. Over time the US Supreme Court under its
different Chief Justices has approached rejection of its own
precedent in different ways and at varying rates of reversal. This
book examines the role of constitutional precedent in US Supreme
Court reasoning. The author surveys the entire history of the US
Supreme Court up until 2020, keying in on decisions regarding when
it chose to overturn its own constitutional precedent and why. He
explores how the US Supreme Court under its different Chief
Justices has approached constitutional precedents and justified its
reversal and quantifies which Courts have reversed the most
constitutional precedents and why. Constitutional Precedent in US
Supreme Court Reasoning is essential reading for law professors and
students interested in precedent and its role in legal reasoning.

collections on legal reasoning and analysis.
