The President, Office and Powers
Primarily a study in American public law with an approach partly historicial, partly analytical, and critical. The central theme is the development and contemporary status of presidential power, and of the presidential office under the Constitution.
Corwin's Constitution
The writings of Edward S. Corwin not only cover a vast array of political developments from the first half of the twentieth century, but also reveal Corwin's oftentimes deep personal involvement in those events. Kenneth Crews' compilation of Corwin's most important essays makes a critical and unique contribution to the literature of American politics and law. Although many of Corwin's books came from well-known publishing houses and many of his essays appeared in familiar journals, many of his most important contributions to political thought were published in local newspapers, foreign periodicals, and other publications no longer easily available to many scholars. Such essays constitute the foundation of this book: Corwin's writings about the New Deal and Court-packing, his year in China, his ambiguous support for Woodrow Wilson, and his kind words for Eisenhower and Nixon in the 1950s. These essays also reveal a prominent scholar taking strong positions on political events, from the decision to enter World War I to the challenges of democracy under the threat of atomic war and expanding presidential powers.
The Doctrine of Judicial Review
Five essays examine the concept of "judicial review" from a historical perspective. The term is defined as the power and duty of a court to disregard ultra vires legislative acts.
John Marshall and the Constitution, a Chronicle of the Supreme Court
Edward Samuel Corwin (January 19, 1878 - April 23, 1963) was president of the American Political Science Association.
Edward S. Corwin's The Constitution and what it Means Today
For over fifty years this book has been a basic resource in the study of U.S. Constitutional Law. Frequently updated, it has kept pace with current interpretations of the Constitution, primarily as reflected in decisions by the Supreme Court. The 13th edition, the first new edition since 1958, retains the incisive flavor and commentary of the late Professor Corwin and extends the scope of the book through the 1971-1972 session of the Supreme Court, including the after-session decision on the seating of delegates at the 1972 Democratic Convention.
