Constitutional Ratification Without Reason is one of the most illuminating books I've read in years about the deep conundra surrounding the notion of constitutional "legitimacy" in an age that valorizes "popular sovereignty." Lenowitz's skepticism especially about purported popular ratification of an already-drafted constitution is persuasive and should have great impact on both theoretical discussions and the actualities of constitutional formation.
