Please read my first ever published book review, providing an in-depth examination of the 2020 book, “Unitary Executive Theory: A Danger to Constitutional Government”, found in the May 2021 edition of the Law and Politics Book Review. This book explores the intrinsic qualities governing the unitary executive theory, representing the president’s use of unfettered and unilateral power to act in a manner that is separate from and often deemed to be more powerful than a constitutionally permissible act by Congress or decision from the Supreme Court. This book makes an engaging and educational read for anyone interested in learning about the complexities of presidential power and decision making when coming into conflict with other branches of government under America’s constitutional Republic.
