This Just In: My Own Words, by Ruth Bader Ginsburg

The Notorious RBG (Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg) has just released her first book since coming to the court.  This book collects writings from Justice Ginsburg covering most of her life.  Included are pieces written during her early years in Brooklyn, NY and at Cornell.  Of course there are the types of writings you’d expect from a Supreme Court Justice and long-time woman’s rights activist.  There are sections of the book dedicated to gender equality, and famous women who influenced Ginsburg.  Also, the book covers work at the Supreme Court and Ginsburg’s judicial philosophy. Of note to Supreme Court junkies will be Ginsburg’s recollections of light times at the Court including her friendly but adversarial relationship with the late Antonin Scalia.
