  A masterly introduction to the United States Constitution, this concise book leads the reader through an overview of the document’s individual articles and amendments. With clear and accessible language, Currie then examines each of the three branches of the federal government and explains the relation between the federal and state governments. He analyzes those constitutional provisions that are designed to protect citizens from governmental interference, such as the due process and equal protection clauses and the confusing first amendment provisions respecting the separation of church and state and includes discussions of judicial review and freedom of speech and of the press.
   
  A sympathetic yet critical guide, Currie’s book enables students and laypersons to understand one of the cornerstones of the Western political tradition. The second edition incorporates the Supreme Court decisions that have affected constitutional interpretation.
   
  “Superb . . . highly recommended for those seeking a reliable, understandable, and useful introduction to our constitution.”—Appellate Practice Journal and Update

Have we relegated God's creative voice to the select persons who share our particular religious system?

  From an Olympic gold medal–winning coach, a new playbook for effective athlete education and team building

  Championship Behaviors provides athletes, parents of athletes, and coaches a defined path to the "how" of significant achievement while simply and clearly explaining the research behind the "why." McCutcheon speaks to the need for aspiring athletes to work, learn, and compete and the responsibility coaches have to teach, coach, and mentor. As he says, "We won't always have five-star talent, but we can often make up the difference by being five-star teachers, learners, and competitors." 
   
   
   
  A sought-after coach and consultant, McCutcheon also illuminates the value of integrating the physical, mental, and social aspects of sport to maximize chances of competitive success.

  The Capitalist's Worst Nightmare Come True: The Crucifixion of Capital: 
  In this break-through multiple-award winning book, Richard exposes the lies, greed, corruption and inequality upon which the capitalist system is built. We have the power to turn the world upside down and free ourselves from the illusions of capitalism forever. 
  "Richard is an ‘outside the box’ thinker and TIME-EQUITY is a bold pathway of change." James B. Fuller, World Alliance for Planetary Health 
  “As time unfolds, it becomes increasingly visible that many of our systems have outlived their purpose. Aligned with our true human spirit, a shift occurs calling for a new approach to value. Richard shows what this could look like.” Nicolette DeVidar, TV Host & Founder, urban2050 
  This book shows how fragile the monetary system is and the elite do not want you to know that. Richard has uncovered their secrets. From mechanic to an exemplary career in the financial industry his self-made billionaire partner told him that his greatest asset is his ability to see things differently because he doesn't have an MBA. His "unconventional" methods were featured in a national financial magazine and TV show. He learned that the majority have to fail financially for the few to win. 
  The thrust of this book is to show us that there are possibilities beyond what we’ve come to accept as our reality; this comes from an unending drive to imagine beyond the conventional wisdom. TIME-EQUITY is the realistic alternative we’ve been waiting for to usher in an age of equality, true democracy, a sustainable planet and quite possibly the first era of peacefulness amongst humanity to work together in realizing our unlimited potential.
