The important, splendid, controversial essays collected in Aftermath provide learned context for this defining, though bizarre moment in American history and culture. Everyone interested in the individual and the law, politics and the future will want to read this book. - Blanche Wiesen Cook,author of Eleanor Roosevelt The first serious collection of academic reflections about the scandal, the essays in Aftermath offer citizens, students, lawyers, and historians fresh insights about American law and liberalism, about culture wars and family values, and about the politics of scandal in the late twentieth century. - Martha Minow,author of Between Vengeance and Forgiveness: Facing History After Genocide and Mass Violence
