Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reporter is the only hope for an innocent man on death row for murder—while the real killer roams free—in this “riveting, provocative” thriller (Publishers Weekly). When burnt-out Miami reporter Matt Cowart receives a letter from a death row inmate pleading his innocence, he is tempted to dismiss it. But as the newspaperman digs into the case of Robert Earl Ferguson, an African American given the death penalty for the brutal slaying of a white girl, he begins to believe that Ferguson is the real victim of hate and prejudice. And if he doesn’t act, the wrong man is going to be executed. In the months that follow, Cowart’s investigative articles not only set Ferguson free, but make Cowart a celebrity and win him a Pulitzer Prize—and set in motion a new chain of unimaginable horror. For there is monster out there, and he is not through with killing. . . . Includes a preface by the author “Tense, exciting, and very, very real.” —The Detroit News “A classic cat-and-mouse story.” —Orlando Sentinel “Katzenbach is a skilled storyteller. . . . With admirable subtlety . . . [he] manages to address the disturbing issues of race and crime. . . .

His best book by far.” —Lawrence Block

Book excerpt: When young attorney and mother Brek Cuttler finds herself covered in blood and standing on a deserted train platform, she has no memory of how she got there. For one very good reason. She’s dead. But she doesn’t believe it at first. Trapped between worlds, Brek struggles to get back to her husband and daughter until she receives a shocking revelation that makes her death no longer deniable: She’s been chosen to join the elite group of lawyers who prosecute and defend souls at the Final Judgment. With each dramatic trial conducted in a harrowing courtroom of eternity, Brek discovers how the choices that she and others made during their lives have led her to this place. She realizes that if she’s to break the chain, she must first face the terrible truth about her death. But before Brek can do that, she suddenly finds that she herself has been called to stand trial…and that her first client in the afterlife holds the secret to her fate.

Download or read book Judicial Review in Mexico written by Richard D. Baker and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The amparo suit is a Mexican legal institution similar in its effects to such Anglo-American procedures as habeas corpus, error, and the various forms of injunctive relief. It has undergone a long evolution since it was incorporated into the Constitution of 1857. Today, its principal purpose is to protect private individuals in the enjoyment of the rights guaranteed by the first twenty-nine articles of the Constitution. Mexico after its independence produced many constitutions. One of the earliest problems was to find an adequate means of defending the Constitution against ill-founded interpretations of its precepts. Like the United States, Mexico has developed a system of constitutional defense in which the judiciary is the supreme interpreter of what this document means. Unlike the United States Supreme Court, however, the Mexican Supreme Court has not been innovative in its decisions or contradicted the administration on major policy decisions. This difference must be attributed to the civil law system of Mexico as well as to the political climate. The first part of Richard D. Baker’s book describes the historical background of amparo and other methods of constitutional defense in Mexico. The three men most closely associated with creating a judicial form of constitutional defense in Mexico were Manuel Crescencio Rejón, José Fernando Ramírez, and Mariano Otero. Their own writings indicate that the immediate source of amparo must be found in the American institution of judicial review that was transmitted to Mexicans through Alexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America. The second part is an exposition of the workings of the amparo suit in the twentieth century and the constitutional and statutory provisions affecting it. Since 1857, when it was incorporated into article 102 of the Constitution, the amparo suit has evolved into a highly complex institution performing three functions: the defense of the civil liberties enumerated in the first twenty-nine articles of the Constitution, the determination of the constitutionality of federal and state legislation, and cassation. The Supreme Court is primarily limited to defending civil liberties through the amparo suit; it remains less innovative and more restricted than the United States system of judicial review, especially in the effect of its judgments on political agencies. Baker’s study is the first one in English dealing with this subject and is one of the most extensive in any language. It should be welcome as a valuable tool to all students of Mexican law, history, and political thought.

Este es un libro sobre dos de las más grandes y urgentes. ¿Cual es la respuesta a la muerte? ¿Cuál será nuestro destino final? Las respuestas propuestas surgen de dos convicciones básicas: que la Biblia es la única base verdaderamente fidedigna sobre la que se puede contestar estas preguntas, y, que muchas veces la gente ha pasado por alto las respuestas que la Biblia da, o las ha interpretado mal o ha comprendido mal, muchas veces con consecuencias desastrosas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ESPIRITUALIDAD Encontrar los pies de uno, en estos tiempos peligrosos y confusos puede ser una batalla difícil de librar. Muchos tratan de vivir existencias normales y tranquilas, pero con cada paso que dan para encontrar la normalidad, la paz y el confort, ocurren eventos y actividades muy confusas e inexplicables en sus vidas y hogares. Muchos no pueden explicar el origen exacto de estas molestias o batallas ni las razones que las causan. Han buscado respuestas, pero éstas nunca llegan. Muchas personas han llegado a expresar que están lidiando con sus demonios internos. Pueden prevalecer condiciones que son rebeldes, atormentadoras, adictivas e incluso inductoras del suicidio. Me gustaría presentarte lo que el Espíritu Santo me presentó gentilmente hace muchos años atrás a través de la Santa Biblia, y me gustaría quitarle toda la sombra al "elefante en la habitación" que los creyentes eligen ignorar con la esperanza de que simplemente desaparezca. No tengas miedo de cuestionar tus dudas y no tengas miedo de cuestionar tu realidad. Espero responder a algunas preguntas acerca de los espíritus inmundos que siguen causando estragos en la vida de las personas que tienen fe en Dios. Estos espíritus inmundos no tienen por qué quedarse. Con nuestra fe en el Señor Jesús, podemos recuperar el control y echarlos fuera. Dios es nuestra liberación y nuestra salvación.

Download or read book Latin American Dramatists since 1945 written by Tony A. Harvell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-09-30 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This resource compiles and locates biographical and bibliographical information of over 700 prominent Latin American dramatists of the late 20th century and their plays in 20 different countries, and it lists over 7,000 plays arranged by country and by author. Author biographies consist of year and place of birth, education, careers, other literary genres, and awards and prizes. The bibliographic listings include various editions of plays, followed by references to the plays in anthologies, collections, or periodicals. Latin American theater is rooted in the rich historical traditions of both the indigenous cultures of the region and those of Spain. In the second half of the 20th century, immigration to Latin America from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia also proved influential, and theater became a means of social protest. The military and political dictatorships of the late 20th century often censored plays and persecuted playwrights.
