Download or read book Little Helpers written by John Robert Greene and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2024-11-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Little Helpers, historian John Robert Greene encourages us to rethink the scandals of Harry Truman’s presidency by providing the first political biography of the man who precipitated them—Gen. Harry H. Vaughan. As the former president’s close friend and military aide, Vaughan brought a number of disreputable figures into the White House, in addition to committing plenty of misconduct on his own. Although aware of Vaughan’s misdeeds, Truman remained unwilling to rid his administration of him and his hangers on. Vaughan’s scandals have largely gone overlooked by historians—a tendency that Little Helpers corrects. Greene begins with the story of how Truman and Vaughan met during World War I, then examines Vaughan’s support for Truman for the Senate and later as President. The majority of the book, however, considers the various cronies that surrounded Vaughan and illustrates the significance of his relationship with Truman—and the president’s inability to rein him in. Drawing from primary and archival sources, many never before published, Little Helpers is further distinguished by its use of the correspondence between Vaughan and Truman. Greene also provides a dramatic narrative account of the inner workings of the Truman administration, making the book accessible to the general reader as well as the specialist.

Book excerpt: WHEN THE SERIAL KILLER IS THE GOOD GUY, EVIL DOESN'T STAND A CHANCE... The Honorable Judge Harry Shem has survived what many did not. As a frightened and traumatized ten-year-old boy imprisoned in a Holocaust concentration camp, he was faced with either a gruesome death or an invitation to become a Kapo, surgeon, and murderer. He chose the latter. Now forty years later, entrusted with sentencing New York City's most heinous criminals to their deserved fates, Harry is motivated by the sheer goal of being granted asylum into one of the Old Testament's Cities of Refuge. After arming himself with his previously learned surgical skills and the ever guiding light of the Torah, he ceremonially performs organ transplant surgery on the condemned in the privacy of his very own prison. When Shem's prisoners begin disappearing without a trace, he attempts to remain camouflaged. Unfortunately, the clarity he has enjoyed for many years is clouded by one man who moves in across the street Da Commandant. In order for Harry's mind to confront his past and protect his present, he must come to terms with the very obstacle that has thus far controlled his life and presently threatens his very existence guilt.

Download or read book Justification and the Truth Connection written by Clayton Littlejohn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-07 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internalism-externalism debate is one of the oldest debates in epistemology. Internalists assert that the justification of our beliefs can only depend on facts internal to us, while externalists insist that justification can depend on additional, for example environmental, factors. In this book Clayton Littlejohn proposes and defends a new strategy for resolving this debate. Focussing on the connections between practical and theoretical reason, he explores the question of whether the priority of the good to the right (in ethics) might be used to defend an epistemological version of consequentialism, and proceeds to formulate a new 'deontological externalist' view. His discussion is rich with insights and will be valuable for a wide range of readers in epistemology, ethics and practical reason.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AS GOOD AS A DOG A DOG CAN LIE ABOUT SOMEONE BUT NOT LIE ABOUT SOMEONE "The justice system is, unfortunately, often not a friend of the family or the truth." For what crime can a person be accused, judged, convicted, and sentenced without trial or chance to speak the truth? ANSWER: CHILD ABUSE In what court is "perjury" permitted? ANSWER: "PERJURY" IS RARELY CONSIDERED IN DOMESTIC RELATIONS CASES. The answer to the question above was written in a book describing how to succeed in your divorce case. An internet ad states, Revenge in your domestic relations case can be achieved thru using the children, finances and assets. Another ad states, What is being made available are the dirtiest divorce tactics known." And what is the dirtiest tactic? It is a three letter word, LIE. LIE to the police, doctors, lawyers, and judges. LIE to the Custody Evaluator and the Custody Master. LIE to personnel in CYS, family, and friends. And what is a second dirty tactic? Have them LIE for you. The point of "AS GOOD AS A DOG" is to show how these "dirty tactics" were used and to present a means to fight them. I have given the proposal for state legislature to a member of the state senate. It is based on the experience of my wife and I, my daughter, and my grandsons.
