Title: Implementing the Constitution
Description: "This book argues that the Supreme Court performs two functions. The first is to identify the Constitution's idealized "meaning." The second is to develop judge-made tests and doctrines to realize that meaning in practice. Bridging the gap between the two - implementing the Constitution - requires moral vision, but also practical wisdom and common sense, ingenuity, and occasionally a willingness to make compromises."--Jacket.
