This book examines how Supreme Court detainee cases have been implemented, with emphasis on the role of the president, concluding that an active executive branch has the ability to shape the manner in which judicial decisions are implemented and exploring why presidents have more influence than Congress and the courts.

"For those unfamiliar with these four [Supreme Court] detainee cases, Presidential Power in Action is an excellent introduction. It explains the complex issues clearly while showing how limited the impact of these seemingly strong rulings were. This also makes it useful for those interested in the implementation of Supreme Court decisions." - The Law and Politics Book Review"Darren Wheeler'svolume effectively, and at times alarmingly, illustrates deep lessons about the exercise of unilateral powers and the design of our system of checks and balances." - William G. Howell, Associate Professor, Harris School of Public Policy
