Implementing the Constitution

Richard H., Jr. Fallon

"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.
