An Introduction to Constitutional Law: 100 Supreme Court Cases Everyone Should Know Background

An Introduction to Constitutional Law: 100 Supreme Court Cases Everyone Should Know is a piece of multimedia, using video snippets and books, to explore the constitutional law of the US over the last two centuries. The book was produced by Randy E. Barnett and Josh Blackman on 13 September 2019 by Aspen Publishers.

The book seeks to cover the 100 most important decisions the Supreme Court of the US has made and takes a deeper look into the context of these court cases. Prominent cases are mentioned, including Roe v. Wade (1973), Wickard v Filburn (1942) and NFIB v. Sebelius (2012).

The book is mainly used as a teaching resource to educate people on the US constitution throughout history and the significance of such laws in the present day. Jack M. Balkin, of Yale Law School, stated “Barnett and Blackman have made learning the basics of American constitutional law as painless and as fun as possible.”
