Constitutional Law: Principles and Policy, Cases and Materials
Description:
This three-hole punched, alternative loose-leaf version of the hardbound book is printed on 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper with wider margins and the same pagination—offered at a substantially lower price than the hardbound book.
The authors of this casebook are committed to reflect fully the dynamism, controversy, and excitement that characterize contemporary Constitutional Law. While generally striving for brevity, the authors lightly edit cases where the Court appears to be embarking on a new doctrinal course so that sharply different constitutional philosophies are fully and fairly presented.

• Hamdan v. Rumsfeld — the legality of the use of military commissions by the Executive Branch.
