Michael Seidman is one of the nation's most creative and challenging thinkers about constitutional law. He has an uncanny ability to make you think twice, and then again, about the meaning of our deepest national commitments. In this elegant volume, he gives voice to the many ways in which the right to silence and its opposite--the duty to speak--reflect the paradoxes of our constitutional tradition. You will never hear the Miranda warning in the same way again. --David Cole, author of Enemy Aliens: Double Standards And Constitutional Freedoms In The War On Terrorism and legal affairs editor for The Nation
