    1st printing. By Cass R. Sunstein. There's Santa Claus, Shakespeare, Mickey Mouse, The Bible, and then there's Star Wars. Nothing quite compares to sitting with down with a young child and hearing the sound of John Williams' score as those beloved golden letters fill the screen. In this fun, erudite and often moving book, Cass R. Sunstein explores the lessons of Star Wars as they relate to childhood, fathers, the Dark Side, rebellion, and redemption. As it turns out, Star Wars also has a lot to teach us about constitutional law, economics, and political uprisings. Ultimately, Sunstein argues, Star Wars is about the freedom of choice and our never-ending ability to make the right decision when the chips are down. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, full color.
