Chinese Summary/中文概要： 民意代表为了[制宪]、[修宪]议题吵得震天价响、互不相让，你可知道，正是利益冲突带来的争执、妥协。造就了人类史上第一部成文宪法—美国宪法。在亲身参与制宪的美国国父华盛顿眼中，这部宪法能够诞生，实在是一椿奇迹！
本书是一位传记作家，重现一七八七年五月至九月费城立宪大会的现场报道，作者以说故事的方法呈现这一段历史：读者可以听见当年参与代表的激烈雄辩，看见开国诸贤华盛顿为国事蹙眉、慈蔼长者富澜克林谆谆教诲后辈、麦迪下逊冷静勤勉地作着笔记。
华盛顿并未预料到的[奇迹]是，这个在无数整治和妥协之中诞生、众人眼中差强人意的根本大法，之后竟孕育出当今世上最富强的国家。关注宪法议题的我们不妨看看，民主大国奇迹的源头，究竟如何发生！
