A Court Divided: The Rehnquist Court and the Future of Constitutional Law, by Mark Tushnet (read 1 Feb 2010) While this book is five years old and so not as pertinent as it once was, it is still good reading and shows a lot of insight into the work of the Court. It shows no particular ideological bias at least as far as I was concerned, and I mostly agreed with the views he expresses. The accounts he gives of each of the justices are full of interest.

Distinctions
In this authoritative reckoning with the eighteen-year record of the Rehnquist Court, Georgetown law professor Mark Tushnet reveals how the decisions of nine deeply divided justices have left the future of the Court; and the nation; hanging in the balance. Many have assumed that the chasm on the Court has been between its liberals and its conservatives. In reality, the division was between those in tune with the modern post-Reagan Republican Party and those who, though considered to be in the Court's center, represent an older Republican tradition. As a result, the Court has modestly promoted the agenda of today's economic conservatives, but has regularly defeated the agenda of social issues conservatives; while paving the way for more radically conservative path in the future.
