This review is from: Tyranny of the Majority : Fundamental Fairness in Representative Democracy (Paperback)
Guinier's essays that evoked so much controversy when she was offered as a nominee for a key position in the Clinton administration. The introduction is more thought-provoking than the essays are, as the latter tend to get boggled down in legalese and political theory.
