Moller and leading legal scholars analyze the 2005–2006 Supreme Court term, specifically the most important and far-reaching cases of the year, plus cases coming up. Now in its fifth edition, the *Review* is the first scholarly journal to appear after the term’s end and the only one grounded in the nation’s first principles, liberty, and limited government.
