Here's what the reviewers are saying about Damon Root's Overruled:
"Must-read."—Senator Rand Paul
"The most thorough account of the libertarian-conservative debate over judicial review…a valuable guide to both the past and the potential future of these important issues."—The Washington Post
"Confident, competent telling. In particular, [Root] powerfully illustrates that Holmes, Brandeis and Frankfurter—the most overrated justices in our history—had not the foggiest notion of the Constitution."—The Wall Street Journal
"Overruled is a sober, well-researched, and thoughtful case for the libertarian point of view on judicial issues ranging from gun control to economic regulation."—The Washington Monthly
"Lucid and brilliantly crafted…. Read it today so you can anticipate and understand the judicial contortions coming tomorrow."—Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
