The Dynamic Free Speech Clause examines the historical and fluid relationships between freedom of speech and other constitutional rights, including equal protection, abortion, the free exercise of religion, and the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. The book assesses the products and consequences of these dynamic intersections, and draws important lessons from them about freedom of speech and constitutional rights more generally. Erwin Chemerinsky, who is the Dean and Jesse H. Choper Distinguished Professor of Law at University of California, Berkeley School of Law, praised the book as “stunning in its originality and importance.”
