"An absolutely superb presentation of a "Dworkinian" approach to constitutional interpretation" -Sanford Levinson, W. St. John Garwood and W. St. John Garwood, Jr. Centennial Chair in Law, University of Texas School of Law
"Quite simply superb. Fleming and Barber have produced a book that is a carefully argued, thorough, and eloquent introduction to the most important foundational questions about constitutional meaning. Their book is both widely accessible and intellectually sophisticated." -Lawrence Solum, John E. Cribbet Professor of Law & Professor of Philosophy. University of Illinois College of Law
"A well-written, creative, and original book that makes complex issues of constitutional interpretation and political theory come alive to a wide audience. It is a masterpiece of scholarship and scholarly teaching which I plan to use in my classes." -Ronald Kahn, James Monroe Professor of Politics and Law, Oberlin College
"Barber (Univ. of Notre Dame) and Fleming (Boston Univ. School of Law) offer a spirited defense of Ronald Dworkin's (Freedom's Law: The Moral Reading of the American Constitution, CH, Oct'96, 95-42193) morality-infused approach to constitutional interpretation. . . . The text provides outstanding critiques of the various interpretative approaches to the Constitution which have been floated over the past Century. The book is certain to be valued by
those versed in the judicial politics literature. . . . Highly recommended."--Choice
