Drawing on an original and impressive collection of data, 'The Elevator Effect' comprehensively examines the importance of interpersonal relationships among judges for judicial decision-making and legal development. A clear and readable narrative backed by analysis of judicial behaviour throughout the US federal judicial hierarchy, this work demonstrates that the institutional structure in which judges operate substantially tempers judicial behaviour.
