Summary:
"The American justice system was founded on the idea of "majority-rule," but in a democracy this is achievable only if the majority has the interests of the whole at heart. As a solution, W. Royce Clark formulates a non-majoritarian ethic that would represent not just the interests of white Christian men, but all citizens"-- Provided by publisher.
