 Great Book/Real Small September 19, 2008
This is a great book, but beware that it is very small. I have seen cell phones bigger than this book!
Too little too much. March 25, 2008
It is very handy and an excellent coffee table book of obvious need. But, I think it is a bit over priced.

I was looking for a book with more detailed stuff. But with this price, this book is not bad.
 Good ideas, but they'll never work in practice... April 29, 2007

This work of legislative science fiction is a great idea. One can only wish that some country some day will put it into practice. It's a very nice, well-thought out, comprehensive and fairly consistent piece of political fiction.
The problem is that the ideas herein will never work in practice. At least not unless some stronger checks and balances are put on the rapid communications systems and media developed since this great endeavor and document was first formulated over 200 years ago.
The importance of this admirable ideological manifesto should none the less never be overrated. After all - as President G W Bush so eloquently has remarked - "It's just a piece of paper".
Don't look at what the supposed adherents of the principles within this "Constitution" preach and teach, look at what they do.
The constitution of the body of politics enacted by these adherents is certainly in bad health these days (April 2007). It's the constitution of a dying person, not even receiving intensive care.
Action always speaks louder than words. Take a close look at the deeds justified by this Constitution, and listen well to what they say.

Don't complain for another second unless you know the heart of what's in this little book. Know it, use it, and write your representatives and president with it in mind. Because quite obviously, some of them *don't* know it. And I include Democrats in that statement; this isn't about parties, it's about America and what many of us as citizens have forgotten. Turn off your d@mn television, pick this book up and learn it before no one remembers what to fight for anymore.
