MixedThe Wall Street JournalMs. Biskupic spoke with \'a majority of the justices,\' meaning at least some of the court’s conservatives politely sat for her questions. After using the book to opine that the court is \'off the rails,\' \'going backward,\' \'laying waste to precedents\' and so on, you wonder if she’ll be allowed back into their chambers ... Ms. Biskupic too often airs her own dissenting opinions ... Worse, because it’s harder to detect, the book is often an unreliable guide to legal cases ... Casual readers might acquire a worse understanding of some cases than before, which is too bad, since the raw materials are free to read and hardly inaccessible.
