Seriatim - The Supreme Court Before John Marshall

Scott Douglas Gerber

Sinopsis

“This absorbing collection of essay . . . goes far toward filling a void in the literature on the early justices of the world's most significant tribunal” (Law and Politics Book Review).    Seldom has American law seen a more towering figure than Chief Justice John Marshall. Yet even while acknowledging the indelible stamp Marshall put on the Supreme Court, it is possible—in fact necessary—to examine the pre-Marshall Court, and its justices, to gain a true understanding of the origins of American constitutionalism.   The ten essays in this volume were specially commissioned for the book, each written by the leading authority on his or her particular subject. They examine such influential justices as John Jay, John Rutledge, William Cushing, James Wilson, John Blair, James Iredell, William Paterson, Samuel Chase, Oliver Ellsworth, and Bushrod Washington. The result is a fascinating window onto the origins of the most powerful court in the world, and on American constitutionalism itself.

Principles of economics

Carl Menger

"Principles of Economics" by Carl Menger is a seminal work in the field of economics, laying the foundation for the Austrian School of Economics. First published in 1871, Menger's book revolutionized economic thought by emphasizing the subjective nature of economic value and the role of individual preferences in determining prices. Menger's analysis of marginal utility and his explanation of how goods derive their value from their ability to satisfy human wants mark significant departures from classical economic theories prevalent at the time. This book remains essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the fundamentals of economic theory and the origins of modern economic thought.
