A Matter of Interpretation

In this engaging audiobook, US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia critiques the common-law mindset typically seen in judicial interpretation, asserting that it is not suitable for statutory and constitutional contexts. His witty essay is complemented by four commentaries from esteemed legal scholars—Gordon Wood, Laurence Tribe, Mary Ann Glendon, and Ronald Dworkin—who offer diverse perspectives on his arguments. Scalia's responses to these critiques create a thought-provoking dialogue that reveals the depth of his legal philosophy and his lasting impact on jurisprudence.
