Description
Modern Constitutional Law, Cases, Notes, and Questions 13th Edition Bennett L. Gershman ISBN 9781685616991
Since its first publication more than forty years ago, Modern Constitutional Law has remained one of the most widely adopted and respected casebooks in a highly competitive field. Its enduring success reflects both its clarity and its consistent ability to meet the needs of professors and students alike. Over the decades, faculty have repeatedly praised the book’s accessible, user-friendly design and its careful balance between comprehensive coverage and pedagogical effectiveness.
As Professor Thomas E. Baker has observed, his long-standing loyalty to the Rotunda name stems from the book’s rare ability to include all of the most important constitutional cases while preserving fuller judicial opinions that foster meaningful and thoughtful classroom discussion. Rather than oversimplifying the law, the casebook invites students to engage deeply with constitutional reasoning and debate.
The Thirteenth Edition reflects sweeping and consequential developments in constitutional law. It incorporates major doctrinal shifts, including the elimination of federal constitutional protections for abortion, the expansion of the right to possess firearms, the end of affirmative action in higher education, and new limits on the authority of federal administrative agencies. The edition also addresses renewed emphasis on Commerce Clause principles, strengthened protections for religious liberty against state interference, and the articulation of new standards in a range of free speech cases. Together, these updates ensure that Modern Constitutional Law remains current, rigorous, and indispensable for understanding the modern constitutional landscape.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Free rental returns, whenever you are done
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning early costs you nothing: it is the same free label, and sending it back sooner is welcome. Just be sure it reaches us by the semester deadline to avoid late fees.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book is always free.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free: print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page, whether you send it back early or on the semester deadline. Cancelling a shipped rental for a refund is different: there, the return label cost comes out of your refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
