From a #1 New York Times bestselling author and legal scholar, this book offers a clear, engaging guide to reading and understanding the U.S. Constitution. Drawing on her work as cohost of the Strict Scrutiny podcast and frequent legal commentator, Melissa Murray demystifies each amendment with historical context and explains its relevance today. Timely and accessible, the book underscores why constitutional interpretation matters now more than ever.

Its themes connect to a major exhibition at the Museum of the City of New York marking the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, which explores foundational documents, civic choice, and their lasting impact on American democracy.
