Aaron Caplan's
An Integrated Approach to Constitutional Law
This groundbreaking casebook is ideal for one-semester introductory
Constitutional Law
courses of 3–5 units that teach both structure and
rights. Its novel approach presents constitutional law as a coherent
system, not as isolated doctrines in silos. The book integrates subjects
ordinarily taught in Con Law I and II; it integrates historical and
doctrinal approaches; it integrates features of a casebook and a study
guide; and it presents each case as an integrated whole, so that
students learn relationships among doctrines while studying the details
of each. Its tone is accessible, while its structure allows for
sophisticated classroom discussion. A detailed teacher’s manual offers
charts, graphics, and additional source materials, significantly
enhancing accessibility for first-time adopters.
