Episode:

Justice Anthony Kennedy's book is not boring

Category: News & Politics

Description: As a justice on the Supreme Court, Anthony Kennedy wrote some big opinions.

He was appointed by President Reagan, and most often voted with conservatives.

But his vote was often pivotal in controversial cases about hot-button issues like same-sex marriage and abortion, and in several key instances he voted with the court's liberals.

In a new memoir, he opens up about his time on the court -- and he tells NPR's Nina Totenberg he is concerned about bitter partisanship today.
