Reviews
-
The provocative essays in this collection not only restore the Ninth Amendment as a topic for serious constitutional consideration, they also make important contributions to theories of constitutional interpretation. Any scholar interested in the future course of constitutional development must take these essays seriously.

Barnett has once again brought together much of the Ninth Amendment scholarship. This collection is a worthy heir to Volume 1.

...an excellent successor to Volume 1. The bulk of the work is an evenhanded collection of theses and antitheses from the most important scholars in the field. Four appendixes and an excellent bibliography make this book a treasure trove for scholars and laypeople concerned with the issue of individual liberty in the U.S. Highly recommended for all academic libraries.
