Product Information
View the Table of Contents. Read the Introduction."Ward and Weiden have produced that rare book that is both a meticulous piece of scholarship and a good read. The authors have . . . sifted through a varied and voluminous amount of archival material, winnowing out the chaff and leaving the excellent wheat for our consumption. They marry this extensive archival research with original survey data, using both to great effect." --"Law and Politics Book Review""Helps illuminate the inner workings of an institution that is still largely shrouded in mystery." --"The Wall Street Journal Online""The main quibble . . . with contemporary law clerks is that they wield too much influence over their justices' opinion-writing. Artemus and Weiden broaden this concern to the clerks' influence on the thinking of the justices about how to decide cases." --"Slate.com"Provides excellent insight into the inner workings of the Supreme Court, how it selects cases for review, what pressures are brought to bear on the justices, and how the final opinions are produced. Recommended for all academic libraries. --"Library Journal"Artemus Ward and David L. Weiden argue that the clerks have more power than they used to have, and probably more power than they should. --"Washington Post"The book contains a wealth of historical information. . . . A reader can learn a lot from this pioneering study. --"Cleveland Plain Dealer"Meticulous in scholarship. . . . Sorcerers' Apprentices presents convincing statistical evidence that the aggregate time that law clerks spend on certiorari memos has fallen considerably because of the reduction in the number of memos written by eachclerk. --Judge Richard A. Posner in "The New Republic"Ward and Weiden have produced that rare book that is both a meticulous piece of scholarship and a good read. -- The Law and Politics Book ReviewBased on judicial working papers and extensive interviews, the authors have compiled the most complete picture to date of the transformation of Supreme Court law clerks from stenographers to ghost-writers. This will instantly become an essential resource for students of the Court. --Dennis J. Hutchinson, editor of "The Supreme Court Review""A truly excellent study on an interesting and important question. As we know from the popularity of "The Brethren" and "Closed Chambers," people love insider accounts of Supreme Court decision making, and this book provides that from a very unique point of view." --Howard Gillman, author of "The Votes That Counted: How the Court Decided the 2000 Presidential Election""An urgently needed and highly readable study of the most powerful young lawyers in America: law clerks at the Supreme Court. Law clerks themselves tend to vastly overstate or underestimate their importance, but authors Artemus Ward and David Weiden have gotten it just right: law clerks wield significant and growing power at the nation's highest court. This eye-opening book charts that growth and points to the potential for abuse." --Tony Mauro, Supreme Court Correspondent for "American Lawyer Media"...[E]xceptionally informative in tracing the history of the institution of the Supreme Court clerks. The analysis of the evolution of both the job and the influence that clerks have on the Courts decisions. --"Georgia Bar Journal"Law clerks have been apermanent fixture in the halls of the United States Supreme Court from its founding, but the relationship between clerks and their justices has generally been cloaked in secrecy. While the role of the justice is both public and formal, particularly in terms of the decisions a justice makes and the power that he or she can wield in the American political system, the clerk has historically operated behind closed doors. Do clerks make actual decisions that they impart to justices, or are they only research assistants that carry out the instructions of the decision makersthe justi
