Mr. Floyd Abrams is the author of THE SOUL OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT and a
senior partner in the Cahill Gordon & Reindel law firm. America’s preeminent
First Amendment lawyer, Mr. Abrams, has spoken out on the most controversial
free-speech issues of our time. The right of Americans to voice their beliefs
without government approval or oversight is protected under what may well be
the most honored and least understood addendum to the US Constitution—the
First Amendment. Floyd Abrams, a noted lawyer and award-winning legal
scholar specializing in First Amendment issues, examines the degree to which
American law protects free speech more often, more intensely, and more
controversially than is the case anywhere else in the world, including
democratic nations such as Canada and England. In this lively, powerful, and
provocative work, the author addresses legal issues from the adoption of the
Bill of Rights through recent cases such as Citizens United.
