- Ackerman must be commended for the honesty and directness of his defense of constitutionalism, irrespective of the 'sensitivities' he quite obviously offends... The book has already made a significant impact in America where it has generated a robust debate over the 'renewal' of U.S. constitutionalism. --Emilios Christodoulidis, Modern Law Review
