Bush's Law
Eric Lichtblau
Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group
In the aftermath of 9/11, President Bush declared that the struggle against terrorism would be nothing less than a war&#8212;a war that would require new tools and a new mind-set. As legal sanction was given to covert surveillance and interrogation tactics, internal struggles brewed over programs and policies that threatened to tear at the constitutional fabric of the country.<b>Bush's Law</b> is the alarming account of the White House's efforts to prevent the publication of Eric Lichtblau's expos&#233; on warrantless wiretapping&#8212;and an authoritative examination of how the Bush administration employed its &#8220;war on terror&#8221; to mask the most radical remaking of American justice in generations.
