Constitutional Law, Cases and Materials, Concise

Constitutional Law, Cases and Materials, Concise Synopsis

The Concise Edition of this casebook is a relatively compact, easy-to-wield book that focuses on the text of Supreme Court opinions and other primary documents. Like the unabridged edition, it provides as much of the raw decisional, statutory and historical note material as is practical to allow teachers the latitude to structure courses in their own ways and to encourage students to formulate their own generalizations directly from the materials. It concentrates on the role of the federal judiciary, separation of powers, federalism, all aspects of due process and equal protection, and major topics within free speech and law and religion.
