This issue also includes Harry How's well-illustrated article 'A Day with Dr. Conan Doyle' (pp.182-188). An added Holmesian bonus is the presence of Clarke Russell's 'A Nightmare of the Doldrums' (pp.189-198); his tales were a favourite of Dr. Watson: 'I was deep in one of Clark Russell's fine sea stories' ('The Five Orange Pips').

2012ref. BK-W69LPUHarvard University Press 2012-02-29. 2012. Hardcover. collectible_like_new. Collectors copy - unread - like new Over the course of the nation’s history the Constitution has been turned upside-down Michael Greve argues in this provocative book. The Constitution’s vision of a federalism in which local state and federal government compete to satisfy the preferences of individuals has given way to a cooperative cartelized federalism that enables interest groups to leverage power at every level for their own benefit. Greve traces this inversion from the Constitution’s founding through today dispelling much received wisdom along the way. The Upside-Down Constitution shows how federalism’s transformation was a response to states’ demands not an imposition on them. From the nineteenth-century judicial elaboration of a competitive federal order to the New Deal transformation to the contemporary Supreme Court’s impoverished understanding of constitutional structure and the “devolution” in vogue today Greve describes a trend that will lead to more government and fiscal profligacy not less. Taking aim at both the progressive heirs of the New Deal and the vocal originalists of our own time The Upside-Down Constitution explains why the current fiscal crisis will soon compel a fundamental renegotiation of a new federalism grounded in constitutional principles.
