Publisher Synopsis
The Constitutionalist encourages, indeed forces, one to come to terms with the role of the freedom of expression in any regime, and in our own in particular, in a fashion that no other single work does. Political Science Reviewer [An] original, extended, learned, dogmatic, tightly-structured, eloquent, unorthodox, and altogether heroic essay in constitutional explanation, interpretation, and plain and fancy assertion. California Law Review Once [Anastaplo] placed Americans in his debt with a stirring example of standing up for an important principle. Now we are in his debt for a provocative book on the First Amendment. Criminal Law Bulletin No constitutional lawyer will have cause for regret if he lays his case books and advance sheets to one side, ponders on Anastaplo's text, and browses in his footnotes. Journal Of Legal Education Lexington Books has done a new generation of students of the Constitution a great service in reissuing George Anastaplo's 1971 classic. The Law and Politics Book Review An in-depth study of the freedom of speech and press provisions of the First Amendment... Superbly trained in both law and philosophy, Anastaplo presents a detailed technical analysis of the origins, the continuing development and the present-day significance of the freedom of speech and press provisions of the First Amendment.
