Owen Fiss has been a leading legal scholar for over 30 years, yet before 2001 it would have seemed unlikely for him to write about national security and the laws of war; his focus was civil procedure and equal protection. But, when the War on Terror began to shroud legal proceedings in secrecy, he realised that the bulwarks of procedure that shield the individual from the awesome power of the state were dissolving. A War Like No Other will be an essential intellectual foundation for all concerned about constitutional rights and the law in a new age.
