Biased and embarrassing
Revisado: 08-07-20
The background drama details on big cases are interesting, but the author too often editorializes in ways that are embarrassing to actual lawyers who know the details of the opinions. It sounds like the author had someone else write the summaries of a case and then threw it its own thoughts at the end. Also the narrator is too monotone and mispronounces “Posner”.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 267
The Brethren is the first detailed behind-the-scenes account of the Supreme Court in action. Bob Woodward and Scott Armstrong have pierced its secrecy to give us an unprecedented view of the Chief and Associate Justices - maneuvering, arguing, politicking, compromising, and making decisions that affect every major area of American life.

Awful voiceover
Revisado: 07-28-20
Great book but terrible voiceover - this is legal drama, just give us the information. The narrator tries to do voices for dialogue and adds too much unneeded emphasis and even sarcasm. Just read the text, that’s what any listener of this would want. Disappointing.
