About this title

Synopsis

Recognized authorities in the subject for over a quarter of a century provide succinct and authoritative coverage of the major principles in modern American Constitutional Law. This book, a shortened version based on the authors' popular hornbook and five volume treatise, analyzes the constitutional issues that are studied in law school today. Each chapter begins with a summary of the basic law as it exists today, followed by an analysis of the work of the Court. It discusses the origins of judicial review and federal jurisdiction, federal commerce and spending powers, state powers in light of the dormant commerce clause, the war power, freedom of speech and religion, equal protection, due process, and other important individual rights and liberties.
