Book The Case for Marriage

Download or read book The Case for Marriage written by Linda Waite and published by Crown. This book was released on 2002-03-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for children when parents are unhappy, and that marriage is essentially a private choice, not a public institution. Waite and Gallagher flatly contradict these assumptions, arguing instead that by a broad range of indices, marriage is actually better for you than being single or divorced– physically, materially, and spiritually. They contend that married people live longer, have better health, earn more money, accumulate more wealth, feel more fulfillment in their lives, enjoy more satisfying sexual relationships, and have happier and more successful children than those who remain single, cohabit, or get divorced. The Case for Marriage combines clearheaded analysis, penetrating cultural criticism, and practical advice for strengthening the institution of marriage, and provides clear, essential guidelines for reestablishing marriage as the foundation for a healthy and happy society. “A compelling defense of a sacred union. The Case for Marriage is well written and well argued, empirically rigorous and learned, practical and commonsensical.” -- William J. Bennett, author of The Book of Virtues “Makes the absolutely critical point that marriage has been misrepresented and misunderstood.” -- The Wall Street Journal www.broadwaybooks.com

With her life's luggage in a shopping trolley, complete with an orange tent and her pet cockatiel, Reenie is also walking the M4, and not for charity.

Book American Women and Flight since 1940

Download or read book American Women and Flight since 1940 written by Deborah G. Douglas and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Individual women’s stories enliven almost every page” of this comprehensive illustrated reference, now updated, from the National Air and Space Museum (Technology and Culture). Women run wind tunnel experiments, direct air traffic, and fabricate airplanes. American women have been involved with flight from the beginning. But until 1940, most people believed women could not fly, that Amelia Earhart was an exception to the rule. World War II changed everything. “It is on the record that women can fly as well as men,” stated General Henry H. Arnold, commanding general of the Army Air Forces. Then the question became “Should women fly?” Deborah G. Douglas tells the story of this ongoing debate and its impact on American history. From Jackie Cochran, whose perseverance led to the formation of the Women’s Army Service Pilots (WASP) during World War II to the more recent achievements of Jeannie Flynn, the Air Force’s first woman fighter pilot and Eileen Collins, NASA’s first woman shuttle commander, Douglas introduces a host of determined women who overcame prejudice and became military fliers, airline pilots, and air and space engineers. Not forgotten are stories of flight attendants, air traffic controllers, and mechanics. American Women and Flight since 1940 is a revised and expanded edition of a Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum reference work. Long considered the single best reference work in the field, this new edition contains extensive new illustrations and a comprehensive bibliography.

Book The Constitution and the Attorneys General

Download or read book The Constitution and the Attorneys General written by Jefferson Powell and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of the Republic, the President's chief advisor in the interpretation of the Constitution has been the Attorney General. The opinions of the Attorneys General on constitutional topics are official statements of the executive branch's views, and in many circumstances where a constitutional question cannot come before a court, their opinions provide the final answer. This book offers the most important constitutional opinions of the Attorneys General and the Department of Justice from Edmund Randolph (President Washington's first Attorney General) to Janet Reno. Powell's commentary provides biographical and historical context to enhance the reader's appreciation of the opinions, which cover such topics as the separation of powers, the authority of Congress and the President over matters of war and peace, the nature of citizenship, and the executive's responsibilities with respect to statutes that the President believes unconstitutional. The opinions are presented in full text and with original pagination, making The Constitution and the Attorneys General a fully independent research tool. A variety of indices and tables give the reader full access to the executive branch's two-century-long tradition of construing and applying the Constitution. "A superb and invaluable source book for graduate students in political science, historians, and legal scholars." -- CHOICE Magazine

Download or read book The Modern Deposition written by Anthony Bocchino and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since the United States introduced depositions into civil litigation practice in 1938, they have been an invaluable tool of law. They are also a constantly evolving component of the American legal system. As Anthony J. Bocchino and David A. Sonenshein note in The Modern Deposition, the role of depositions may be changing, but lawyers and practices are still mired in the same staid techniques used in preparing them. Their new guide to depositions shows the need for a radical change in the way lawyers think about depositions. Bocchino and Sonenshein examine several key components of the deposition and its transformation: The factors that have led to major changes The usage of deposition testimony in modern litigation The case theory for depositions The keys to deposition preparation The importance of witness preparation The step-by-step process of a modern deposition The substantive issues of witness testimony The techniques of defending depositions The most important tools available to a civil litigator Bocchino and Sonenshein's exploration of the law demonstrates the need for innovation in civil litigation. Depositions must be both complete and comprehensive. The Modern Deposition shows you how to guarantee that they will be!
