Examples & Explanations for Constitutional Law: Individual Rights, 10th edition, by Allan Ides, Christopher N. May, and Simona Grossi, provides a clearly written, comprehensive examination of constitutional doctrine pertaining to individual rights. This problem-oriented study guide provides students and teachers with a highly readable and accessible study of constitutional law. Both this book and its companion volume, Examples & Explanations for Constitutional Law: National Power and Federalism, combine detailed textual material with real-world examples and explanations that apply the relevant constitutional doctrine to specific fact patterns. The text operates as a readable and citable treatise on the topics covered, and the examples and explanations serve as an elaboration on that text. Its unique, time-tested Examples & Explanations pedagogy combines clear textual material with well-written, comprehensive and up-to-date examples, explanations, and questions. A favorite among law school students, and often recommended by professors, this guide takes students through the principal doctrines of constitutional law covered in a typical course that includes a study of individual rights.

  • Inclusion of nearly 50 new Supreme Court cases, and more than 30 state and lower federal court decisions
  • Nearly 200 Examples & Explanations, many of them new and updated
  • Analysis of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Org. (2022), overruling Roe v. Wade (1973), and leaving any protection of a woman's right to terminate her pregnancy up to the states
  • Discussion of how state courts, applying state constitutions, have responded to the Court's invitation in Dobbs
  • Consideration of Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard College (2023) and the Court's new, less deferential approach to race-based college admissions programs
  • Expanded treatment of race-based legislative districting plans, including Alexander v. S.C. State Conf. of the NAACP (2024)
  • Discussion of freedom of speech in the social media setting, as exemplified in recent decision in Moody v. NetChoice, LLC (2024)
  • Exploration of the current Court's approach to resolving Establishment Clause claims, as set forth in Kennedy v. Bremerton School Dist. (2022)
  • Updated treatment of the right to keep and bear arms, as seen in New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass'n v. Bruen (2022) and United States v. Rahimi (2024)
