This book presents a quantitative history of constitutional law in the United States and uses a statistical model of law to bring together humanistic and social-scientific perspectives on legal history.

This book examines the relationship among the US Supreme Court, Congress, and the public. Contrasting most studies of Court-Congress relations in the United States, the book argues that the Court's primary concern is protecting its institutional legitimacy and securing compliance with its decisions.
