How should the U.S. Constitution be interpreted, and upon what philosophical basis? What were the intentions of its framers concerning judicial interpretation? the doctrine of natural rights? the finality of Supreme Court decisions? To what extent are these intentions relevant to modern politics and jurisprudence? These and other issues are given a balanced and fresh treatment in Professor Jacobsohn's timely study.
An excellent commentary on and an insightful contribution to the current debate on constitutional interpretation. -- Walter F Murphy, Princeton University
It is an interesting book, exploring some new ground....this volume is highly recommended to the academic scholar of the Supreme Court. * Law Books in Review *
