• Extra informatie: From the publisher : Mr. Swisher's scholarly and timely discussion of how the constitutional system has changed under the stresses of two major wars and a major depression is a happy blend of interpretation, theory, and concrete illustration. A stimulating text for courses on the Constitution, The Growth of Constitutional Power in the United States is now being used in classes at Columbia University, Smith, Johns Hopkins, the University of Chicago, Princeton, the University of Washington, the University of Baltimore, the University of California, and the University of Virginia. "Professor Swisher's analysis of his sub- jectis so orderly and complete, and his material is presented in such readable and convincing fashion, that this becomes one of the most successful and useful compilations of essays on the Constitution that is now available. No politi- cal scientist has yet produced an abler non-technical, yet critical, analysis of our constitutional system than is to be found in Professor Swisher's volume. It deserves, and undoubtedly will enjoy, a wide audience." American Political Science Review. "This book is a delight to read for its thoughtful grasp of a wide field, and for the unfailing clarity and energy of the writing itself."-Chicago Sun.
