Summary:"This constitutional companion book shows students just how revolutionary the Constitution was-and how relevant it remains today. After revisiting the key events leading to the Constitution's ratification, this book explores the Constitution article by article, and amendment by amendment, to help readers better understand how each section of the document shapes the country we live in today. The 8th edition illuminates such issues as Donald Trump's immunity from prosecution for the January 6th riots, Mike Pence's role in certifying Electoral College votes, Ketanji Brown Jackson's appointment to the Supreme Court, and the Dobbs decision, among other recent developments"-- Provided by publisher
