Gun Rights: Interpreting the Constitution

By Philip Wolny

The gun rights issue has been among the most contentious debates since the founding of the United States. This instructive volume offers close but comprehensible readings of the Second Amendment set against the backdrop of fluctuating social and political contexts. Additionally, it documents the evolution of arguments for and against the right to bear arms. Readers will understand why this provocative issue has continued to rage in the courts and among politicians through the years and may do so for years to come.
