Produktbeschreibung

Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment to the Constitution addresses presidential incapacity. It is an important but widely misunderstood provision, and it has never been used. This book gives readers a clear, accessible, even-handed explanation of Section 4 - how it would work and how it would not work.
