Latest Cato Supreme Court Review Available September 17
New edition offers unique critique of the Court

WASHINGTON--On September 17 the Cato Institute releases the second edition of the Cato Supreme Court Review, an annual analysis of the Court's most important decisions from the term just ended, plus an examination of cases still to be decided.

The Cato Supreme Court Review is unlike any other publication that follows the Court in at least three significant ways. First, is its timeliness; it appears less than three months after the previous term concluded, and on the eve of a new term. Second, the Review is written not just for legal experts but for a broad, educated audience. Finally, its perspective is singular: It examines the Court's decisions and its upcoming cases from a Madisonian perspective, in the light cast by the nation's first principles--liberty and limited government--as articulated in the Declaration of Independence and secured by the Constitution.

Contributors to this year's volume are Randy E. Barnett, James E. Bond, Michael A. Carvin, Robert Corn-Revere, Thomas C. Goldstein, Eric S. Jaffe, Robert A. Levy, Roger Pilon, Ronald D. Rotunda, Bradley A. Smith, and James L. Swanson. The volume also includes last year's B. Kenneth Simon Lecture, "On Constitutionalism," by Douglas H. Ginsburg, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

Review copies should be reserved in advance and picked up at the Cato Institute (1000 Massachusetts Avenue, NW) on September 17. Copies can also be sent by mail. Please email your request to Wyatt DuBois at wdubois@cato.org. Include your name, your organization's name, mailing address, and office telephone number.
