Summary:
-- Out of Order -- Steve Jobs "A maker of history, Sandra Day O'Connor proves herself an engaging historian in this fine book, taking us inside perhaps the most important and least understood institution in American life: the Supreme Court. With her characteristic clear-eyed common sense, Justice O'Connor has given us a valuable and entertaining gift."--Jon Meacham, author of Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power From the Hardcover edition.
