He takes us into chambers to hear judges forging appellate decisions about life and death, multimillion-dollar damages, and priceless civil rights. And, most significantly, he exposes the financial, political, personal, and professional pressures that threaten judicial ethics and independence. As political attacks on judges increase, [the author] calls for reforms to protect judicial independence and for vigilance to ensure justice for all."--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed October 15, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Judicial process|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008106241 650 0 Judicial independence|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2003006888|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Judicial power|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008106230 650 0 Political questions and judicial power|zUnited States. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008109679 650 7 Judicial process.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 984705 650 7 Judicial independence.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /984681 650 7 Judicial power.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/984696 650 7 Political questions and judicial power.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1069674 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSchudson, Charles B.|tIndependence corrupted.|dMadison, Wisconsin : The University of Wisconsin Press, [2018]|z9780299320300|w(DLC) 2018011391 |w(OCoLC)1030447233 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1902047|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
