Nearly two decades after its initial publication, Louis Fisher's durable classic remains at the head of its class -- a book that Congressional Quarterly called "as close to being indispensable as anything published in this field". This newly revised and updated edition emphatically reinforces that sterling reputation. Fisher dissects the crucial constitutional disputes between the executive and legislative branches of government from the Constitutional Convention through the beginning of the Bush administration, venturing beyond traditional discussions of Supreme Court decisions to examine the day-to-day working relationships between the president and Congress. By analyzing a mixture of judicial pronouncements, executive acts, and legislative debates, Fisher pinpoints the critical areas of legislative-executive tension: appointment powers, investigatory powers, legislative and executive vetoes, the budgetary process, and war powers. He then examines these areas of tension within a concrete political and historical context. To scholars, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the institutions and issues of public law. For practitioners, general readers, and students of American government, it demonstrates how constitutional issues shape and define current events. Ought to be required reading for the President, for every member of congress, and for anyone who seeks to understand the subtle complexities of a constitutional arrangement that formally separates legislative from executive powers". -- Choice This book presents a set of issues, themes, questions, and arguments that will continue to be of fundamental interest to constitutional scholars in particular andpolitical scientists in general". -- George C.
