Arguing that all claims to legitimacy must remain suspect, Tribe focuses instead on the choices that must nonetheless be made in resolving actual constitutional controversies. Constitutional Choices illuminates the world 0f scholarship and advocacy uniquely combined by Laurence Tribe, one of the nation's leading professors of constitutional law and most successful practitioners before the Supreme Court. In his new hook, Tribe boldly moves beyond the seemingly endless debate over which judicial approaches to enforcing the Constitution are "legitimate" and which are not. To do so, he examines problems as diverse as interstate banking, gender discrimination, church subsidies, the constitutional amendment process, the war powers of the President, and First Amendment protection of American Nazis.Challenging the ruling premises underlying many 0f the Supreme Court's positions on fundamental issues of government authority and individual rights, Tribe shows how the Court is increasingly coming to resemble a judicial Office of Management and Budget, straining constitutional discourse through a managerial sieve and defending its constitutional rulings by "balancing'' what it counts as "costs" against what it deems benefits?' Tribe explains how the Court's "Calculus" systematically excludes basic concerns about the distribution of wealth and power and conceals fundamental choices about the American polity.

I wouldn't order it unless it's required reading.. "The most billiant legal mind in America" according to Bargain Huntress. Laurence Tribe understands the constitution as well as any man alive. His work and reputation will live long after he's gone. This is worth reading.
His analyses result in a most perceptive critique of constitutional theory and the practice of the Burger Court. One of the country's leading constitutional scholarsTribe possesses all of the analytical background necessary to explore burning constitutional issues with insight and wisdomConstitutional Choices has so much going for it that every constitutional scholar--political scientist, teacher, judge, historian, congressman, and advocate alike--has to own it, to peruse at leisure and to refer to with pride. (Judge David L. Tribehas provided in the essays in Constitutional Choices a brisk commentary on developments since 1978 in American constitutional lawThis acute and wide-ranging commentary also offers ostensive proof that Americans cannot simply choose what to believe about the Constitution in the absence of all interpretive theory.
