Len Niehoff and Thomas Sullivan, "Free Speech: From Core Values to Current Debates" (Cambridge UP, 2022)

Why are current debates over free expression often so divisive? How can we do better? In this succinct but comprehensive and scholarly book, authors Len Niehoff and Thomas Sullivan tackle these pressing questions.\xa0Free Speech: From Core Values to Current Debates\xa0(Cambridge UP, 2022) traces the development and evolution of the free speech doctrine in the Supreme Court and explores how the Court - with varying levels of success - has applied that doctrinal framework to \u201chard cases\u201d and current controversies, such as those involving hate speech, speech on the internet, speech on campus, and campaign finance regulation.
