Neil Gorsuch je zástanca textualizmu pri výklade zákonov a originalizmu pri interpretácii americkej ústavy. Spolu so sudcom Clarence Thomasom presadzuje jurisprudenciu prirodzeného práva. Jeho práca sa sústreďuje na tieto právne filozofie a ich dopad na americký právny systém.
"This rich collection offers Neil Gorsuch's most salient writings and speeches from his over three decades of thinking about the law as a student, practitioner, professor, judge, and now justice. For court watchers and the general public alike, it provides essential insight into his judicial philosophy and his views on the Constitution and the role of judges in our modern republic"-- Provided by publisher
After assessing the strengths and weaknesses of arguments for assisted suicide and euthanasia, Gorsuch builds a nuanced, novel, and powerful moral and legal argument against legalization, one based on a principle that, surprisingly, has largely been overlooked in the debate; the idea that human life is intrinsically valuable and that intentional killing is always wrong. At the same time, the argument Gorsuch develops leaves wide latitude for individual patient autonomy and the refusal of unwanted medical treatment and life-sustaining care, permitting intervention only in cases where an intention to kill is present.
