Great history and essays to help understand the significance of this document. ( )

First read the whole Constitution in my Criminal Justice class in senior year of high school, but I have read it in parts many times since, in undergraduate Constitutional Law, Civil Liberties, and Political Theory classes, and, of course, as a law student and as a practicing lawyer. ( )

A technical but easy and interesting read for historical curiosity. Many things have changed, naturally, but a lot hasn't. ( )

Mas interesante de lo que hubiera pensado. Habla mas que otra cosa de como funciona el gobierno. Cosas como que el congreso tiene dos camaras y cuantos representantes por estado hay en el senado, etc.

Tiene sentido en general, excepto los electores. Que sistema mas complicado, incluso lo intentaron amendar despues pero no veo la diferencia, sigue siendo confuso y complicado. ( )

Read on the 26th of May, 2021. I quickly zapped through the book in less than thirty minutes. I am not going to rate or date this book, since this is a document and not a 'book'.
