Student's Guide to the Supreme Court

Specifically written to engage high-school students, Student's Guide to the Supreme is an alphabetical section of key words and legal concepts spanning abortion to writs of mandamus. The members of the current Roberts Court---including Sonia Sotomayor---are profiled here, as are all chief justices and notable associate justices. Complements the first two sections with a generous sampling of influential primary source documents, including landmark decisions, excerpts from justices' papers, political cartoons, and constitutional provisions related to the Supreme Court.
