Description: 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.
