Rights, Liberty, and Justice

This book serves as a useful companion to the other CLCA title Institutional Power and Constraints and contains excerpted cases on things like incorporation of the Bill of Rights onto States, the Free Exercise of Religion, What constitutes Free Speech, Obscenity and Libel Law and it even includes the excerpted version of Roe v. Wade. For every Con. Law Geek, the real value of the book may be in the online case archive. The online case archive has hundreds of supplemental cases that give the avid law geek hours and hours of enjoyment. I would like to point out to the person who commented about there being no full cases just excerpts of cases, there are many useful websites, such as [...] where the full opinions can be found, to write papers but as the book is designed for college courses full opinions would not be practical because you'd have either a 5,000 page weighty albatross of a book to get all the cases excerpted here in full or a multi-volume edition that would not be cost-efficient to the budgeted college student.

Good textbook for Constitutional Law

I used this book in my Constitutional Law and it provided great coverage of landmark Court cases without being too boring! It was an assigned text but I kept it after I finished the class (and even now that I've graduated) because it is very useful when I have constitutional questions.

Book

The book was in pretty good condition....The corner were a little bent but I guess that's expected with delivery. Really fast shipping, though!

Good Shape

The product I received was in great condition and did not take long arriving. Very satisfied.

Constitutional Law Textbook being put to use frequently

I am currently using this textbook for my Constitutional Law class at Winthrop University, and i would like to comment that the book is very well written and easily read. The one problem that i have is that the Opinions of the court are not complete, but only the highlights have been stated, as completely understandable, but I find the extra information also informative when trying to write papers on the Opinions, not just the highlights. I otherwise think that the book is superb and quite helpful in my class.
