The Amendments to the Constitution cover

A companion to the widely acclaimed The Constitution of 1787, this new book by eminent constitutional scholar George Anastaplo examines the nature and effects of the twenty-seven amendments to the U.S. Constitution.

Provocative, engaging, and not an inappropriate introduction to George Anastaplo. Discourse on the 'right of revolution,' it turns out, was precisely what got him into trouble with the Illinois bar 45 years ago. He remains important as much for what he has written since as for what he did then. Law and Politics Book Review This companion to Anastaplo's The Constitution of 1787... argues that the constitutional amendments implement the equality, liberty, and rule of law principles fundamental to the American system of government. Law and Social Inquiry
