- Description: Written by a leading national scholar, Farber's coverage of the First Amendment is clear and incisive. All of the major areas of this complex doctrine are reviewed, including the religion clauses. The text also probes theories of free speech and debates over controversial issues such as campaign finance regulation, hate speech, and religious exemptions. The new edition covers recent Supreme Court decisions transforming doctrine under the religion clauses, redefining the scope of the "true threats" category of unprotected speech, and defining the rights of social media platforms.
