<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This engaging book provides a comprehensive analysis of the issues in "Burwell v. Hobby Lobby," the blockbuster legal challenge to the Affordable Care Act regulation that requires employer-sponsored health plans to provide contraceptive coverage. Through a series of debates between advocates on both sides of the case, the book tackles questions such as: whether for-profit corporations can assert religious-exercise claims under the First Amendment or federal law, whether businesses with religious objections to certain contraceptives should be exempt from coverage requirements, and what the consequences are of the Supreme Court's June 2014 ruling in favor of Hobby Lobby. This case will be discussed for years to come, and the spirited debate between the authors provides fascinating and informative food for thought to scholars, students, and the public as they grapple with fundamental questions of corporate personhood, religious liberty, and health care policy--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>An expanded version of a series of debates between the authors, this book examines the nature of corporate rights, especially with respect to religious liberty, in the context of the controversial Hobby Lobby case from the Supreme Court's 2013-14 term.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Finally, a genuine debate on an important issue that sheds light, not heat, and allows informed readers to make up their own minds." - Burt Neuborne, New York University School of Law, USA</p> <p>"In this lively and engaging book, two of America's leading constitutional lawyers debate whether corporations should have religious rights.
