  Empire of Laws An - Legal...

  For many years, Britain tried to impose its own laws on the peoples it conquered, and English common law usually followed the Union Jack. But the common law became less common after Britain emerged from the Seven Years' War as the world's most powerful empire. At that point, imperial policymakers adopted a strategy of legal pluralism: some colonies remained under English law, while others retained much of their previous legal regimes. 
   
   
    
  As legal historian Christian R. Burset argues, determining how much English law a colony received depended on what kind of colony Britain wanted to create. Policymakers thought English law could turn any territory into an anglicized, commercial colony; legal pluralism, in contrast, would ensure a colony's economic and political subordination. Britain's turn to legal pluralism thus reflected the victory of a new vision of empire—authoritarian, extractive, and tolerant—over more assimilationist and egalitarian alternatives. Among other implications, this helps explain American colonists' reverence for the common law: it expressed and preserved their equal status in the empire. This book, the first empire-wide overview of law as an instrument of policy in the eighteenth-century British Empire, offers an imaginative rethinking of the relationship between tolerance and empire.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman, the central theme revolves around the idea that people express and receive love in different ways. The book introduces five primary love languages: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. The core premise is that understanding your own and your partner’s primary love language is essential for a fulfilling relationship. It argues that many marital issues arise from partners not speaking each other’s love language. It explores how, after the initial “in love” phase fades, choosing to love through these specific languages is necessary to keep the emotional love tank full.

  In the past 15 years cutting-edge innovations in neuroscience have led to one of the most powerful insights in human history…that within each and every one of us there are natural biological potentials for real happiness. In this course, you will learn how to harness your brain's own natural anti-depressants and uncover your true potential for joy!
   
  I'm Elisha Goldstein, author of The Now Effect and most recently Uncovering Happiness: Overcoming Depression with Mindfulness and Self-Compassion. For over 15 years I've been studying and teaching the psychology, neuroscience and practice of uncovering happiness in everyday life.
   
  Along the way I've dug deep into a variety of disciplines and discovered some key natural anti-depressants that:
  
    turn the volume down on our negative thinking,
    lower our stress,
    heighten states of joy and
    wire in the balance and confidence that we can all learn and attain.
  
   
  This has been my experience, the experience of thousands of people I've worked with and is also backed by the latest science.
   
  
   
  About The Symposium
   
  The Uncovering Happiness Symposium is a very personal project for me. It's been my life's work to uncover the potential in each and every one of us for uncovering happiness and I couldn't be more thrilled to bring it to you right now.
   
  In this Symposium you'll learn:
   
  · The key ingredients of lasting happiness
   
  · How to practically bring them into your daily life
   
  · And how to do it so you change your brain for the better
   
  Ultimately you will learn how to take back control of your mind, your mood and your life, sewing the seeds for real lasting happiness.

  Allen's books illustrate the use of the power of thought to increase personal capabilities. Although he never achieved great fame or wealth, his works continue to influence people around the world, including the New Thought movement.  Allen's most famous book, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1902. It is now considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person. (Summary by Wikipedia)
