A Matter of Interpretation: Federal Courts and the Law (The University Center for Human Values Series)

by Amy Gutmann (Editor), Antonin Scalia (Author)

Synopsis

Explores the neglected art of statutory interpretation. This book argues that it is incompatible with democratic government to allow the meaning of a statute to be determined by what the judges think the lawgivers meant rather than by what the legislature actually promulgated.
