Book Synopsis
The demotion of freedom of association has broad ramifications for the constitutional status of voluntary associations in civil society, Luke Sheahan suggests. His book offers a cogent explanation of how this came about, why it matters, and what might be done about it.

Trade Review
Blending brilliant sociological and philosophical insights with a profound rendering of how the First Amendment is supposed to protect freedom of association, this book by Luke C. Sheahan is truly magnificent. It should be on the shelf and in the mind of every scholar, journalist, judge, religious leader, policymaker, and citizen who wishes to understand, save, support, and strengthen America's most vital civil society institutions." - John J. DiIulio, Jr., professor, University of Pennsylvania, and founding director, White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives
