Author Description

The new SECOND EDITION of Eskridge and Frickey's popular legislation casebook has been updated through the end of the Supreme Court's 1993-94 Term, including extensive coverage of the presumption of statutory prospectivity (Landgraf v USI Film Products and Rivers V. Roadway Express, Inc.). The authors have also reorganized and expanded analysis of statutory interpretation that improves upon the pathbreaking coverage in the first edition, with separate chapters that introduce the subject theoretically and historically and then provide complete doctrinal coverage. The NEW EDITION also contains reorganized and expanded coverage of regulation of representation structures and regulation of legislative deliberation.
