Summary

"Government Liability" navigates the intricate world of holding government entities legally accountable for their actions. It explores the delicate balance between protecting governments from frivolous lawsuits and ensuring redress for citizens harmed by negligence, policy failures, or constitutional violations.

 
A key focus is sovereign immunity, the historical doctrine that once shielded governments from legal claims, and how this protection has eroded over time through legislation and judicial decisions. For example, laws like the Federal Tort Claims Act demonstrate a shift towards accountability.

 
The book examines various types of legal claims applicable to government bodies, ranging from negligence and breaches of contract to constitutional violations and administrative errors. It also delves into the real-world consequences of government liability, including its impact on budgets, policy decisions, and public trust.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with foundational principles, followed by detailed examinations of specific legal claims and defenses, and culminating in an analysis of the policy implications of holding government accountable. This comprehensive approach makes it valuable for legal professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in government accountability.

    A complete biography of the ancient Macedonian king and one of history’s greatest military leaders.Alexander the Great, son of King Philip II of Macedonia, and his fourth wife, Olympias, seemed destined for success. He had Aristotle for a tutor until he was sixteen. He took interest in his father’s military efforts abroad, and worried there would be nothing left to conquer when he became king. When ambassadors from Persia arrived in Macedonia, they tried to entertain young Alexander with colorful stories of their home, but the future leader was more interested in their armies and war tactics. It should be no surprise that Alexander became one of ancient history’s greatest and most successful military leaders.In this biography, author Jacob Abbott recounts the life and times of Alexander the Great. He takes readers through the king’s early years, including his youth and education, as well as his relationship with his parents. The history continues with Alexander’s ascension to the throne at the age of twenty and details all the drama and military victories over the next ten years of the monarch’s reign as he expanded his empire from Macedonia and Egypt to northwest India. Unfortunately, Alexander’s demise soon followed, but not before he left his mark on the world. Nineteenth-century American author Jacob Abbott wrote many books over the course of his own life from juvenile fiction to history. He wrote numerous biographies on such monumental individuals as Alfred the Great, Queen Elizabeth I, Genghis Khan, Julius Caesar, and Peter the Great.

    American Gulags show us how to overcome the Marxist indoctrination which has swept across the American government education system. 
     
      
     
    America's system of colleges and universities was once the best in the world. It contributed immeasurably to America's status as the most powerful, productive, and prosperous nation on the globe. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. Today from kindergarten through twelfth grade in the government school system, teaching reading, writing, and math have been supplanted by Marxist indoctrination. Our colleges and universities have become the final training grounds and launching pads for the next waves of Marxist activists. This book equips every American to turn this travesty around.
