    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    In his new book, Michael Perry evaluates the grave charge that the modern Supreme Court has engineered a "judicial usurpation of politics". In particular, Perry inquires which of the several Fourteenth Amendment conflicts---the conflicts over race segregation, race-based affirmative action, sex-based discrimination, homosexuality, abortion, and physician-assisted suicide---have been resolved as they should have been resolved. Perry lays the necessary groundwork for his inquiry by addressing both questions of constitutional theory and questions of constitutional history.

    Long description:

    In his new book, Michael Perry evaluates the grave charge that the modern Supreme Court has engineered a "judicial usurpation of politics". In particular, Perry inquires which of the several Fourteenth Amendment conflicts---the conflicts over race segregation, race-based affirmative action, sex-based discrimination, homosexuality, abortion, and physician-assisted suicide---have been resolved as they should have been resolved. Perry lays the necessary groundwork for his inquiry by addressing both questions of constitutional theory and questions of constitutional history.

    Perry has written an ambitious, thoughtful, and provocative book that combines theoretical analysis of interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment with nuanced discussions of several specific constitutional cases. It is a worthy addition to the large and diverse scholarly literature on the Fourteenth Amendment.--Perspectives on Politics Science
