Book excerpt: Maltz (law, Rutgers U.) discusses the often discongruous nature of the Burger Court, explaining its generally centrist proceedings, yet acknowledging that it, at times, produced decisions even more liberal than that of the Warren Court, its liberal predecessor. At the same time this book shows patterns that explain the doctrinal positions adopted by the majority in each case. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
