Since the founding of the country, Americans have debated how to properly balance an individual's right to exercise civil liberties and society's right to be protected from harm. Contributors to this anthology provide both historical background and contemporary perspectives on such topics as free speech, the separation of church and state, privacy rights, and how terrorism affects civil liberties.
