内容简介:
An in-depth look at the defining document of America
Want to make sense of the U.S. Constitution? This plain-English
guide walks you through this revered document, explaining how the
articles and amendments came to be and how they have guided
legislators, judges, and presidents and sparked ongoing debates.
You'll understand all the big issues - from separation of church
and state to impeachment to civil rights - that continue to affect
Americans' daily lives.
Get started with Constitution basics - explore the main concepts
and their origins, the different approaches to interpretation, and
how the document has changed over the past 200+ years
Know who has the power - see how the public, the President,
Congress, and the Supreme Court share in the ruling of
America
Balance the branches of government - discover what it means to be
Commander in Chief, the functions of the House and Senate, and how
Supreme Court justices are appointed
Break down the Bill of Rights - from freedom of religion to the
prohibition of "cruel and unusual punishments," understand what the
first ten amendments mean
Make sense of the modifications - see how amendments have
reformed presidential elections, abolished slavery, given voting
rights to women, and more
Open the book and find:
The text of the Constitution and its ammendments
Discussion of controversial issues including the death penalty,
abortion, and gay marriage
Why the word "democracy" doesn't appear in the Constitution
What the Electoral College is and how it elects a President
Details on recent Supreme Court decisions
The Founding Fathers' intentions for balancing power in
Washington
