Description: Before I give you info on the content - a couple physical notes - the spine of the DJ is the same pinkish color as shown on front and back.There is age discoloration inside front and back cover next to inside crease.None of these things affect the readability of the contents. The introduction to the book is by Roscoe Pound, Dean Emeritus of Harvard Law School.The following outline of the focus of this book is taken from the points outlined in Chapter 2 (1) The Ninth Amendment to the Constitution is a basic statement of the inherent natural rights of the individual. (2) Its great meaning has never been recognized and construed. (3) It represents a growing and living philosophy. (4) This declaration of unenumerated human rights implies that there is an obligation on the part of the government to protect such rights. (5) Since the Constitution has recognized unenumerated natural rights, then such rights inhere in the individual and should be protected from infringement. (6) If, however, this amendment should be classified only as a restrictive clause against the Federal Governemnt, it is a recognition and declaration of inherent human rights and liberties. (7) The Ninth Amendment was intended as a covenant between our Government and the individual. As these points are discussed in depth, it becomes apparent how the author chose his title.Very illuminating reading you will not want to miss!Special note: Be sure to follow my listings as I will continue to list the entire contents of an extensive library of government, civil war, and related topics.
