From the Back Cover

"This is a thoroughly fascinating book by one of our major constitutional thinkers. What makes the book especially notable is that Tushnet not only assesses the possibility of constitutional interpretation outside the courts, but also goes on to deliver an assault on what might be termed constitutional interpretation 'inside' the judiciary. That is, the book becomes a ringing attack on judicial review. This will, no doubt, occasion much debate."--Sanford Levinson, University of Texas at Austin

"A major work-a potential classic that promises also to be an academic bestseller. . . . Tushnet demonstrates that the case for judicial review and thick constitutionalism is far, far more complex than previous theorists have recognized. Any person who wants to defend those principles in the future will have to deal with the claims of this book."--Mark Graber, University of Maryland

Mark Tushnet is Carmack Waterhouse Professor of Constitutional Law at Georgetown University Law Center and the author of Red, White and Blue: A Critical Analysis of Constitutional Law and of a two-volume study of the career of Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall, Making Civil Rights Law: Thurgood Marshall and the Supreme Court, 1936-1961 and Making Constitutional Law: Thurgood Marshall and the Supreme Court, 1961-1991. He is also the coauthor of a leading casebook on constitutional law and was from 1975 to 1985 the Secretary of the Conference on Critical Legal Studies.
