Download or read book Friends of the Supreme Court Interest Groups and Judicial Decision Making written by Paul M. Collins, Jr. and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-08-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Supreme Court is a public policy battleground in which organized interests attempt to etch their economic, legal, and political preferences into law through the filing of amicus curiae ("friend of the court") briefs. In Friends of the Supreme Court: Interest Groups and Judicial Decision Making, Paul M. Collins, Jr. explores how organized interests influence the justices' decision making, including how the justices vote and whether they choose to author concurrences and dissents. Collins presents theories of judicial choice derived from disciplines as diverse as law, marketing, political science, and social psychology. This theoretically rich and empirically rigorous treatment of decision-making on the nation's highest court, which represents the most comprehensive examination ever undertaken of the influence of U.S. Supreme Court amicus briefs, provides clear evidence that interest groups play a significant role in shaping the justices' choices.

Fifty centuries ago that same Krishna descended from the transcendental world to reveal on earth His eternal spiritual pastimes, and the great sage Vyasa carefully recorded them in the Bhagavata Purana. This book is a summary study of the Tenth Canto of that Purana, written by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the foremost teacher of bhakti-yoga in the modern age. The accounts in this book will fascinate you with their descriptions of spiritual adventure and romance. And they will reveal to you the secret of how to embark on a journey to a transcendental realm beyond space and time.
Download or read book Elevation to Krsna Consciousness written by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and published by The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality of our consciousness can go up or down based on how we see the world and act in it. When we act like the eternal spiritual beings that we are – small parts of a supreme whole – makes us happy. But if we focus our attempts at happiness on the temporary body and mind – on matter – and make those our life's priority, our consciousness will shrink and we’ll be miserable. Spiritual elevation – raising our consciousness to higher levels – happens quickly when we revive our God consciousness. In this compact book, Srila Prabhupada recommends seeing the world as it is – a temporary place full of anxiety – and then taking the road to higher consciousness by rediscovering our relationship with the Supreme Person, Krishna. Anyone can become elevated; the journey begins with a single step up.

Download or read book Believe in the Supreme Creator written by Dr. Kalu Ndukwe Nchege and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Believe in the Supreme Creator is a book about hope, trust, and belief in God. It follows the life of Dinah and her relationship with Kalson. They are faced with disappointments, betrayal, and challenges. They learn to submit to God and walk with Him in faith. Dr. Nchege weaves a story about God and religion using biblical references and African idioms to demonstrate the power of belief and faith. This is an inspiring and enjoyable book by my old friend from my Nigeria days, Dr. Kalu Nchege. I am amazed and thrilled by the way he has been able to show that in all circumstances there is a Scriptural admonition or promise, if when trusted in, brings answers and blessings and a resolution to the situation. Here is hope, encouragement, and instruction for any reader who really wants to know the Supreme Creator who is revealed in the Holy Scriptures Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Rev. Z. D. Reece Through this narrative, Dr. Nchege is able to depict the need for each of us to believe in the Supreme Creator. Only one who has gotten to know how gracious and merciful God is could have delivered a piece of literature like this. Such a remarkable way to let the world know regardless of nationality, ethnic origin, or religious denomination style of worshipping, God loves each of us unconditionally and we must love Him back and be born of the Spirit of God.

Download or read book Friendship Love and Brotherhood in Medieval Northern Europe c 1000 1200 written by Lars Hermanson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Lars Hermanson discusses how religious beliefs and norms steered attitudes to friendship and love, and how these ways of thinking affected social identity and political behaviour. With examples taken from eleventh- and twelfth-century northern Europe, the author investigates why friendship was praised both by brotherhoods of aristocratic warriors and by brethren within monastery walls. Social and political functions rested on personal connections rather than a strong central state in the High Middle Ages. This meant that friendship was an important pragmatic instrument for establishing social order and achieving success in the game of politics.
