This law textbook is highly complex and well researched, yet is easily adaptable to an upper-division undergraduate level. It provides not only great analysis of pivotal legal cases, but ties in historical treaties, the non-legal writings of "founding fathers", and a great collection of analysis related to the racial implications of the American legal system. It also includes analysis of recent legal developments such as Shelby County v. Holder and the legal implications of a "post-racial" America.
