"The second edition of Macmillan's Encyclopedia of the American Constitution is even better than the first, taking a novel but very workable approach to updating a title that garnered considerable praise when it first appeared in 1986 -- a masterful contribution to the reference literature. It fulfills its mission of bridging the disciplines of history, law, and politics using language that is accessible to a mixed audience ranging from high-school students and the general public to constitutional law scholars. It is recommended for public, secondary, academic, and law school libraries, as well as appropriate special libraries."

It is not strictly legal or academic, but is intended for the general public as well as students at most levels...It is recommended for the government and political science sections of all academic and public library reference collections; the older edition can be placed in the circulating collection."
