Unlike most constitutional law books, this book does not assume
that the students have any particular knowledge of American
history, government, or law, so it begins with a rich introductory
chapter to provide students with a necessary foundation for the
rest of the material. Thereafter, it supplements the familiar cases
with historical context and pictures and biographies of current and
famous justices adjacent to their opinions. At the end of virtually
all the substantive sections of the book, there are discussion
problems to facilitate class discussion on hot issues. It makes the
traditional canon accessible and enjoyable to the current
generation. Easily covered over two semesters, the book manages
through careful case selection to avoid drastic editing of all but
the longest cases. An annual supplement available for fall classes
includes the important cases from the previous Supreme Court term.
