A brilliant new approach to the Constitution and courts of the United States by Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer.For Justice Breyer, the Constitution's primary role is to preserve and encourage what he calls "active liberty" citizen participation in shaping government and its laws. As this book argues, promoting active liberty requires judicial modesty and deference to Congress; it also means recognizing the changing needs and demands of the populace. Indeed, the Constitution's lasting brilliance is that its principles may be adapted to cope with unanticipated situations, and Breyer makes a powerful case against treating it as a static guide intended for a world that is dead and gone. Using contemporary examples from federalism to privacy to affirmative action, this is a vital contribution to the ongoing debate over the role and power of our courts.Binding Type: Paperback

Buy the Insurance
I had to use my insurance plan to replace my iPad case. Initially I was sent back to the merchant because I was supposed to be covered under their warranty but to no avail. Once I informed Asurion they sent me the return label along with the instructions which were extremely easy to follow. I selected my drop off location after packing the case back up and within 24-48 hours I received my refund.
Now the one downside I do not like (and it may be user error) was that the funds went to my Amazon account as a gift card. It says you can transfer the funds to your bank card from there but I did not see that option nor was it easy to find. So maybe adding instructions on how to transfer from the gift card back to your original form of payment in an easy to locate/navigate location would make this a 5 star ⭐️ review.
Overall, for what I paid for the insurance versus what I would have paid to replace the case is worth the value of the plan for my money in my books!
Smart shoppers protect their money! I will ALWAYS add the insurance when it is offered. I am seriously contemplating just doing the monthly payment for the amount of stuff I buy from here.
In other words buy the insurance… It’s totally worth it!
