Constitutional Law for a Changing America e-bog

"e;Excellent balance of case excerpts and author explanation, highly appropriate for undergraduate students."e;aDr. Wendy Brame, Briar Cliff UniversityPolitical factors influence judicial decisions. Arguments and input from lawyers and interest groups, the ebb and flow of public opinion, and especially the ideological and behavioral inclinations of the justices all combine to shape the development of constitutional doctrine.
