Lewis, Anthony. Freedom for the Thought That We Hate: A Biography of the First Amendment. New York: Basic Books, 2007. 221 pp. $25.
Anthony Lewis' Freedom for the Thought That We Hate is a history of the fourteen words that make up the speech and press clauses of the First Amendment and how the "the understanding of those words has changed" over nearly 220 years. Those changes have come about because of devel- opments in society and because of brave judges who interpreted the amendment to provide more freedom of expression, press, and thought to Americans than is enjoyed by the citizens of any other nation.
