But what if you want a delightfully quick, witty, and readable reference that, in one compact volume, places the document and its clauses into context? You're out of luck -- until now. Written by Seth Lipsky, described in the \u003ci\u003eBoston Globe\u003c\/i\u003e as \"a legendary figure in contemporary journalism,\u0026amp;\" \u003ci\u003eThe Citizen's Constitution\u003c\/i\u003e draws on the writings of the Founders, case law from our greatest judges, and current events in more than 300 illuminating annotations. Lipsky provides a no-nonsense, entertaining, and learned guide to the fundamental questions surrounding the document that governs how we govern our country. Every American should know the Constitution. Rarely has it glinted so brightly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeth Lipsky\u003c\/b\u003e, founding editor of the \u003ci\u003eNew York Sun\u003c\/i\u003e, has also worked at the \u003ci\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e at home and abroad, and was founding editor of the Forward newspaper, where he was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing in 1991.
