Product Information

In the bestselling tradition of The Nine and The Brethren , The Most Dangerous Branch takes us inside the secret world of the Supreme Court. David A. Kaplan, the former legal affairs editor of Newsweek, shows how the justices subvert the role of the other branches of government--and how we've come to accept it at our peril. Never before has the Court been more central in American life. It is now the nine justices who too often decide the biggest issues of our time--from abortion and same-sex marriage to gun control, campaign finance, and voting rights. The Court is so crucial that many voters in 2016 made their choice based on whom they thought their presidential candidate would name to the Court. Donald Trump picked Neil Gorsuch--the key decision of his new administration. The newest justice, Brett Kavanaugh--replacing Anthony Kennedy--is even more important, holding the swing vote over so much social policy. With the 2020 campaign underway, and with two justices in their '80s, the Court looms even larger. Is that really how democracy is supposed to work? Based on exclusive interviews with the justices, Kaplan provides fresh details about life behind the scenes at the Court: the reaction to Kavanaugh's controversial arrival, the new role for Chief Justice John Roberts, Clarence Thomas's simmering rage, Antonin Scalia's death, Ruth Bader Ginsburg's celebrity, Breyer Bingo, and the petty feuding between Gorsuch and the chief justice. Kaplan offers a sweeping narrative of the justices' aggrandizement of power over the decades--from Roe v. Wade to Bush v. Gore to Citizens United. (He also faults the Court for not getting involved when it should--for example, to limit partisan gerrymandering.) But the arrogance of the Court isn't partisan: Conservative and liberal justices alike are guilty of overreach. Challenging conventional wisdom about the Court's transcendent power, as well as presenting an intimate inside look at the Court, The Most Dangerous Branch is sure to rile both sides of the political aisle.

Reviews
"David Kaplan has an inquiring mind and a lively style. He also has some incredible sources inside the Court who have helped him open a window on the inner workings of the most opaque branch of our government. At a moment when the Court's future hangs in the balance because of the retirement of Justice Kennedy, this book is important, even urgent (and it has plenty of dish, too)." -DANIEL OKRENT author of Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition "This is a book for our times. As the Supreme Court has become a focus of elections, confirmation battles and partisan decisions, The Most Dangerous Branch tells the story, in a compelling way, of the "triumphalism" of the justices, both liberal and conservative. It warns against the increasing power of what was supposed to be the least dangerous branch--nine unelected judges who allocate to themselves decision-making authority over issues that should be left to the elected branches. Read it and start worrying. Then demand change." -ALAN DERSHOWITZ Professor Emeritus at Harvard Law School and Author of The Case Against Impeaching Trump "David Kaplan mixes the gifts of a colorful storyteller with the incisiveness of a first-class legal brief. Read this book for an original argument on a judicial power grab and to find out why Neil Gorsuch is 'like an eight-year-old in a counter-revolutionary candy store.'" -JONATHAN ALTER author of The Center Holds: Obama and His Enemies "Unafraid of the controversy he will certainly create, David Kaplan has written an important and provocative book about our nation's least understood, and yet enormously powerful, branch of government. It's a book that every citizen should read." -DAVID BOIES Chairman, Boies Schiller Flexner and Author of Courting Justice "With the voice of a gifted narrator and the insight of a relentless journalist, Kaplan lifts the veil on the Supreme Court. Through intimate portraits of the nine justices, explorations of their most consequential decisions, and a cinematic portrayal of the Court's central role in our politics, Kaplan makes a compelling case that the other branches have acquiesced to the Court's power - and that the Court is indeed The Most Dangerous Branch ." -DANNY STRONG Co-creator of Empire ; Screenwriter for Recount , Game Change , The Butler "Kaplan spares the feelings of neither liberals nor conservatives in this provocative and timely account of how the Supreme Court evolved into something the founders wouldn't recognize." -H.W. BRANDS Jack S. Blanton Chair in History at the University of Texas at Austin, and author of Traitor to His Class and Reagan: The Life
