Bernstein provides a compelling survey of the history and background of \u003ci\u003eLochner v. New York\u003c\/i\u003e. This 1905 decision invalidated state laws limiting work hours and became the leading case contending that novel economic regulations were unconstitutional. Sure to be controversial, \u003ci\u003eRehabilitating Lochner\u003c\/i\u003e argues that the decision was well grounded in precedent-and that modern constitutional jurisprudence owes at least as much to the limited-government ideas of \u003ci\u003eLochner\u003c\/i\u003e proponents as to the more expansive vision of its Progressive opponents.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTracing the influence of this decision through subsequent battles over segregation laws, sex discrimination, civil liberties, and more, \u003ci\u003eRehabilitating Lochner\u003c\/i\u003e argues not only that the court acted reasonably in \u003ci\u003eLochner, \u003c\/i\u003e but that \u003ci\u003eLochner\u003c\/i\u003e and like-minded cases have been widely misunderstood and unfairly maligned ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid E.
