Sexual McCarthyism

Clinton, Starr, and the emerging constitutional crisis

by Alan M. Dershowitz

Cover of Sexual McCarthyism

The greatest threat to the future of the office of the American Presidency may turn on whether William Jefferson Clinton told a lie, under oath, and then tried - unsuccessfully - to keep secret his sexual relationship with a twenty-two-year-old White House intern. In Sexual McCarthyism, bestselling author Alan M. Dershowitz addresses the key issues at stake - issues that transcend the titillating daily headlines - and what their long-term effects may be.
