Have you ever had trouble understanding the United States Bill of Rights? Have you ever wondered what was really meant by one or more of the ten amendments? Have you ever been unsure as to how these rights apply to modern society? Have you even questioned if the Bill of Rights should still be held as inviolable law, nearly 250 years after its writing? Here's the truth: the Bill of Rights is not easy to understand if you just pick it up and give it a read. The eloquent style in which it's written can be confusing. The language can cause misunderstandings.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 179
Americans wage many of today’s fiercest policy debates and culture wars over constitutional meaning. It’s because constitutional law is so fundamental to our democracy that law schools across the country teach the subject. It's the area of law that determines what federal and state governments are permitted to do, and what rights you have as an individual citizen of the US. Here, you'll get the same accessible, well-rounded introduction to constitutional law as a typical law student - but with the added benefit of noted constitutional scholar Eric Berger's brilliant insights.

A Solid, Concise Outline.

Publisher's Summary
From free speech to fair trials, many of your rights as an American are guaranteed by the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution. Known as the Bill of Rights, this enduring document - along with its interpretation - continues to inspire debate and shape our lives.
But if you’re like most Americans, you haven’t had a chance to explore the Constitution and its fascinating history since you were a teenager. Now, The Bill of Rights: Understanding the Constitution and Your Freedoms offers you an engaging and accessible refresher led by a legal scholar and expert on the Bill of Rights.
Under the guidance of award-winning Professor David L. Hudson, Jr., you’ll begin by examining the historic development of the Bill of Rights. Then you’ll turn your attention to the freedoms found in its pages. Throughout the course, Prof. Hudson uses contemporary examples to help you grasp the meaning and implications of your individual liberties.
In 19 lectures, you’ll explore the deeper meaning of those liberties. Some of the most famous include freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right to keep and bear arms. Others you may be less familiar with include freedom of assembly, freedom to petition the government for a redress of grievances, freedom from double jeopardy, and the right to a grand jury.
Don’t just know your rights. For an enjoyable, memorable, and illuminating discussion of what Madison once called “the Great Rights of Mankind”, look no further.
