Stephen
Breyer. Making our democracy work : a judge's view. Alfred A. Knopf,
2010. KF4575.B73
2010 In
this book Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer addresses fundamental
questions about the role of the Court. Noted for its rejection of
originalism, this book discusses what the Court must do to maintain the
public confidence and argues for interpreting the Constitution in a way that
works in practice. Justice Breyer also emphasizes that the Court must
respect the roles that other actors such as the president and Congress play in
our democracy and that the Court has an obligation to build cooperative
relationships with them. |

Roberta
Rosenthal Kwall. The soul of creativity : forging a moral rights law for
the United States. Stanford Law Books, c2010. KF3012.K85
2010 This
book addresses what motivates human creativity and how the law governing
authors’ rights should be shaped in response to these motivations.
Drawing on a number of diverse sources, including literary philosophical, and
religious works, the author offers solutions for crafting legal measures that
facilitate an author’s ability to safeguard his or her work without entirely
sacrificing the intellectual property policies in practice in the United
States today. |
