Political scientists profile the work of five US Supreme Court Justices deemed innocent of overstepping the bounds of the Constitution by tempering laws with mercy or discovering rights. They are Nathan P. Clifford, Stanley Matthews, Edward Douglass White, Fred M. Vinson, and Antonin Scalia. An introduction characterizes the justices as guardians of republican (Republican?) liberty; an epilogue considers staying clean and sober in the future. Only names are indexed.
Roger Thursby, the hero of 'Brothers in Law' and 'Friends at Court', continues his career as a High Court judge. He presides over a series of unusual cases, including a professional debtor and an action about a consignment of oranges which turned to juice before delivery. There is a delightful succession of eccentric witnesses as the reader views proceedings from the bench.
Cynicism and black humor underscore this memoir of alcoholism and subsequent recovery. Journalist Mark Judge candidly chronicles the twists and turns of his downward spiral of alcohol abuse and addiction and captures the ethos of a young generation often suspicious and alienated by the Twelve-Step approach of Alcoholics Anonymous.
An incisive biography of the Supreme Court's enigmatic Chief Justice, taking us inside the momentous legal decisions of his tenure so far. John Roberts was named to the Supreme Court in 2005 claiming he would act as a neutral umpire in deciding cases. His critics argue he has been anything but, pointing to his conservative victories on voting rights and campaign finance. Yet he broke from orthodoxy in his decision to preserve Obamacare. How are we to understand the motives of the most powerful judge in the land? In The Chief, award-winning journalist Joan Biskupic contends that Roberts is torn between two, often divergent, priorities: to carry out a conservative agenda, and to protect the Court's image and his place in history. Biskupic shows how Roberts's dual commitments have fostered distrust among his colleagues, with major consequences for the law. Trenchant and authoritative, The Chief reveals the making of a justice and the drama on this nation's highest court.
There is no such thing as an alcoholic and there is no such disease as alcoholism! (as society understands it). Whether you agree with this statement or not, one thing is for sure, you will never see alcohol in the same light ever again after reading this book. Jason Vale takes an honest and hard hitting look at people's conceptions of our most widely consumed drug. Jason's major argument is there is no such thing as an 'alcoholic' and that we are conditioned to accept alcohol as a 'normal' substance in today's society despite the fact that it is the major cause of many of today's social problems and a wide range of health issues. This book is much more than a simple eye opener, it will: change the way you see alcohol forever; show you how to stop drinking; help you enjoy the process and enjoy your life so much more than you do now without having to drink alcohol. So open your mind and take a journey with Jason to explore the myths about the most used and accepted drug addiction in the world!
