It's called The Education of Brett Kavanaugh, An Investigation. It's written by two New York Times reporters, Robin Pogrebben and Kate Kelly.

The speakers co-edited this book, which features essays covering major reproductive justice cases like Roe v. Wade and Casey, as well as others focused on intersecting issues of race, class, and sex. Melissa Murray contributed an essay on Griswold v. Connecticut, and Kate Shaw wrote about Young v. UPS.
"
Now you and Kate Melissa recently co-edited a book with Yale Laws, Reva Segal, Reproductive Rights and Justice Stories that tells the stories of a number of reproductive justice cases.
And in that book are essays about the big reproductive rights cases we all know like Roe v. Wade or Planned Parenthood v. Casey, but it also includes some other cases as well, right Kate?
Melissa writes an essay about Griswold v. Connecticut, which is this important precursor case to Roe v. Wade really about contraceptive access.
I did an essay on young v. UPS, a case involving the scope of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act.
So in our book, Reproductive Rights and Justice Stories, you get really terrific essays about the magical 10, a group of non-native English speakers, non-English speaking women who were sterilized in Los Angeles at a public hospital without their consent.
Chief Justice Roberts On Obamacare & The IRS
Traitor or Patriot? - You decide...
This book by Linda Greenhouse discussed Chief Justice Roberts, including a report that he switched his vote in the major census case from the last term, similar to how he reportedly switched votes in the Affordable Care Act case.
"
So yeah, she wrote a book about Chief Justice Roberts that came out I think last year around, I guess, around the holidays.
