| Description: |
Presents a bold fresh vision of the American constitutional system that shows how the complementary relationship between the Constitution's written and unwritten components is one of America's greatest and most enduring strengths. |
| Synopsis: |
onal discussions; and the writings of court justices.America's Unwritten Constitution presents a bold new vision of the American constitutional system, one in which proper interpretation of the Constitution rests on the interplay between its written and unwritten manifestations, but in which interpretation does not, and cannot, depend wholly on one form or the other. Neither America's written Constitution nor its unwritten Constitution stands alone, Amar shows, and with each eye-opening example he develops a deeper, more compelling way of thinking about constitutional law than has ever been put forth before-a methodology that looks past the basic text to reveal the diverse influences, supplements, and possibilities that comprise it. |
