Alan Dershowitz is one of the most celebrated lawyers in the world. He was the youngest full professor in Harvard Law School history where he is now the Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law, Emeritus. The author of War Against the Jews and Get Trump: The Threat to Civil Liberties, Due Process, and Our Constitutional Rule of Law, and of numerous bestselling books, from Chutzpah to Guilt by Accusation to The Case Against Impeaching Trump to The Best Defense to Reversal of Fortune (which was made into an Academy Awardwinning film) to Defending Israel, Dershowitz has advised presidents and prime ministers and has represented many prominent men and women, half of them pro bono.
"""I met Alan Dershowitz in 1959 as a first-year student at Yale Law School. We have been friends since. He was my best man. He has often asked my advice but rarely taken it. Alas, he would have saved himself grief. But the world would be poorer. His advocacy adds value to every controversy in which he engages. Right or wrong his truths cannot be easily dismissed. He makes you think about what you hold dear. And he never blinks. Reading his work is educational but also fun and provocative. His commitment to the law and the Constitution is religious. He is a thinker worth fighting with over issues of the highest order, and a patriot who celebrates America through loving criticism."" --Stephen J. Trachtenberg, president emeritus George Washington University ""Astonishingly brilliant courtroom presence [and] a subtle and compelling theorist of civil liberties."" --Henry Louis Gates Jr. ""An intellectual heavyweight."" --The Economist From War on Woke ""I am writing this book in the recognition that this generation of Americans can change the course of our history--for the better or worse. It is our responsibility to stop the new woke McCarthyism before it becomes the new Americanism that destroys our hard-earned liberties. Inaction is not an option in the face of this growing danger. Hence, this call to immediate action. This is truly a time that tests the souls of all good people who are dedicated to liberty and equality."""
