Faculty Committee member Dick Fallon's new book, Law and Legitimacy in the Supreme Court (Harvard University Press, 2018), has won the Thomas M. Cooley Book Prize given by the Georgetown Center on the Constitution. The Cooley Prize was established last year to draw academic and public attention to a book that makes an important scholarly contribution to our understanding of the Constitution.

Georgetown Law will award the $50,000 prize to Professor Fallon on April 11, 2019. The evening event will feature the inaugural Thomas M. Cooley Judicial Lecture, to be delivered by the Honorable Joan Larsen of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.

Hearty congratulations, Dick!
