Freedom of speech and the Establishment Clause

The settled principle of law and bedrock of the First Amendment is that, Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech and of the press. This book is designed to give the student and curious minds a broad and knowledgeable insight into the First Amendment, the meaning of free speech and why despite the protection afforded by the First Amendment, there are still some categories of expression not given protection under the free speech doctrine. Fraud, defamation, obscenity and divulgence of State secret are among expressions not offered refuge by the First Amendment. The author carefully selected and reported some decisions of the United States Supreme Court, focusing on the subject of free speech, the establishment clause and the free exercise clause. This book reports both the controversy and the curiosity that are subjects of the present-day Constitutional law. It offers students of law hundreds of essays and multiple-choice questions designed to challenge their curiosity.
