Sinossi

Heirship and Equity explores how inheritance laws and practices impact wealth inequality and social mobility in our world. The book examines the legal concept of heirship, looking at its historical evolution and variations across different legal systems, and also investigates the socio-economic consequences of inherited wealth.

 
Did you know inheritance laws often reinforce existing inequalities, challenging the idea that inheritance is simply about individual property rights? Another interesting aspect is the concentration of wealth globally, making wealth transfer mechanisms a key factor in societal stratification.

 
The book argues that current inheritance laws, often seen as neutral, can exacerbate inequalities. It begins by introducing the legal fundamentals of heirship and various inheritance systems, then delves into the socio-economic implications of inherited wealth on income inequality and social mobility, supported by statistical analyses.

 
Further chapters analyze legal frameworks across different countries, focusing on inheritance tax systems and testamentary freedom. The book concludes with policy reform suggestions to promote more equitable wealth distribution, offering recommendations for policymakers and legal professionals.

It was a mystery beset with suspicious circumstances, but the evidence never led anywhere, and the case went cold, Wilkerson's whereabouts unknown. That is, until a remarkable set of circumstances allowed author and investigator Clay Bryant to breathe life back into the case nearly two decades later. Diving into what had previously been overlooked, Bryant was able to locate and recover Wilkerson's remains and successfully prosecute the killer, who'd crafted a calculating plot to take everything the victim had and murder him in order to keep it. The story concludes with the Wilkerson Family finally getting closure and the killer getting sentenced to life in prison. Join Byrant as he unravels this West Georgia cold case.

    Dismissals such as "boys will be boys" and "not all men" are ingrained in our world. And the purity culture of our youth sold the same excuses with a spiritual spin. Can we break the toxic cycle and recover a healthy identity for men? 
     
     
     
    In Non-Toxic Masculinity, Zachary Wagner tells men, "If you are in Christ, this is your problem—and you should be part of the solution." 
     
     
     
    Reflecting on his own coming of age in the purity culture movement and ongoing recovery from sexual shame, Wagner confronts harmful teaching from the American church that has distorted desire, sex, relationships, and responsibility. For those—both men and women—who feel disillusioned and adrift, this book offers a renewed vision for Christian male sexuality founded in empathy and selflessness.
