Buy a new version of this Connected Casebook and receive ACCESS to the online e-book, practice questions from your favorite study aids, and an outline tool on CasebookConnect, the all in one learning solution for law school students. CasebookConnect offers you what you need most to be successful in your law school classes – portability, meaningful feedback, and greater efficiency.

Constitutional Law: Cases, Materials, and Problems is designed as a “teacher’s book” by stimulating thought, inviting classroom discussion, and helping professors to effectively teach. Its thought-provoking problem approach encourages students to delve deeper into constitutional doctrine and gives them an accessible and interesting way to learn constitutional issues. Problems at the beginning of each chapter are referenced throughout the text for continuity. Principal constitutional law cases are edited as lightly as possible to allow the Supreme Court to speak for itself, and shorter notes accompany the problems. A detailed Teacher’s Manual gives insights into the problems and cases in the text.

Chapter-opening problems in the Third Edition are revised in light of the 2011 Supreme Court health care decision. The Occupy Wall Street Movement is carefully explored as well. New court cases are included, such as National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius, Arizona v. United States, United States v. Alvarez, Knox v. Service Employees International Union, Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church, Arizona Christian School Tuition Organization v. Winn, Chamber of Commerce v. Whiting, Snyder v. Phelps, Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Association, Sorrel v. IMS Health Inc., Borough of Duryea v. Guarnieri, Nevada Commission on Ethics v. Carrigan, Arizona Free Enterprise Club’s Freedom Club PAC v. Bennett, Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Board, Stop the Beach Renourishment, Inc. v. Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project, and United States v. Stevens.
