"Epstein and Walker'sConstitutional Law for a Changing America: A Short Courseis a must use text for any course on the Supreme Court and Constitutional Law. Although the text is both academically rigorous and informative, my students look forward to reading each chapter as the authors take complex topics of Constitutional Law and make them easily accessible to every level. From topics ranging from state sovereignty to civil rights, Epstein and Walker'sShort Courseengages its readers and challenges them to think critically about the topic at hand and how it relates to modern issues.A Short Courseis the most comprehensive text on Constitutional Law, and a student favorite." --Joshua Meddaugh, University at Buffalo, SUNY"As a political scientist teaching constitutional law within the discipline, it is vital to have a text that not only approaches the subject from the perspective of legal doctrine, but also encourages students to consider cases and judicial decision-making within the context of our larger social and political system.Constitutional Law for a Changing Americaprovides this approach, in an accessible format that offers the perfect balance of edited opinions, historical narration, and thoughtful analysis." --Angela G.
