The bill of rights in modern America
322 pages. Updated by new edition.
This book examines the contentious national debate about the nature and extent of our individual rights. Twelve distinguished scholars discuss topics such as church and state, right to bear arms, property rights, rights of the accused, equal protection, right to privacy, and affirmative action. Informed by a historical perspective, this book focuses on contemporary issues and has been revised and expanded to address the impact of the Rehnquist years.
