"Highly recommended. To be commended for seeking to find a firmer guide to constitutional meanings than the personal predilections of judges." (Law and Politics Book Review) "A distinctive contribution to the debate over the `return to a jurisprudence of original intent.' Gerber's thesis is provocative and will not sit well with either liberal or conservative advocates of a `jurisprudence of original intent' or their critics." - David M. O'Brien,University of Virginia "A delight to read. . . . Gerber states the principles of a liberal originalism far more clearly and accessibly than any other work on constitutional interpretation. . . . a rare and welcome addition." (American Political Science Review)
