Her contentiously popular 2011 memoir also helped popularize the term “tiger mother.” Rubenfeld has written two books about Constitutional law, as well as two thrillers, including 2006’s The Interpretation of Murder, “a gloriously intelligent exploration of what might have happened to Sigmund Freud during his only visit to America” (Library Journal).
