Judicial Review and Bureaucratic Impact: International and Interdisciplinary Perspectives. Edited by Marc Hertogh and Simon Halliday. New York: Cambridge University Press, 2004. 328p. $90.00 cloth, $39.99 paper.

The impact of judicial decisions on bureaucracy is poorly understood. Some claim that court judgments have little or no effect. In contrast, others worry that judges will usurp the policymaking role of the political branches and override the expertise and experience of civil servants. As this thoughtful and wide-ranging collection of papers demonstrates, both claims are exaggerated.
