In a political climate where the machinery of the federal government has grown increasingly complex, The Power to Legislate offers a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the extent and limitations of legislative power granted by the U.

Levy develops a systematic account of federal legislative power that is ideal for anyone interested in constitutional history and political science.

The Power to Legislate synthesizes these three crucial ideas into a fresh perspective that sheds light on today's controversies.
