A Capacity for Outrage : The Judicial Odyssey of J. Skelly Wright, Hardback Book

A Capacity for Outrage : The Judicial Odyssey of J. Skelly Wright Hardback

Part of the Contributions in American Studies series

Hardback

Description

Arthur Selwyn Miller's book, the first biography written about Judge J.

Skelly Wright, deals with the important aspects of his career as a jurist and the impact of his decisions on the development of constitutional law.

Each chapter deals with a specific area of public law: an explanation of the problem and an evaluation of Judge Wright's interpretation.

Included are discussions of racial integration, freedom of speech, national security, crime control, and administrative law, as well as an analysis of judicial reasoning.

Noting that Judge Wright's judicial career closely followed lines set forth by the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren, Miller concludes with an evaluation of Judge Wright's entire career.
