Sinopse

Mesopotamian Laws explores the origins of justice and legal systems in ancient Mesopotamia, focusing on how these early laws influenced modern legal principles. The book examines the social, political, and economic factors that shaped Mesopotamian law, particularly Hammurabi's Code. Intriguingly, Mesopotamian law included concepts of retribution and social order, and their cuneiform law influenced later legal traditions in the Near East and beyond. The book traces the evolution of legal thought, from early collections to systematized codes like Hammurabi's. It provides historical context, exploring the socio-political structures of Mesopotamian city-states and their impact on legal disputes. The book supports its arguments with translations of legal texts and archaeological findings, presenting complex legal concepts in an accessible style. It begins by introducing Mesopotamian law, progresses into detailed analyses of specific codes, and culminates in an examination of its lasting impact on Western legal thought, making it valuable for anyone interested in the history of law and political science.

    Never before has anyone explored the mind, soul, and heart of Ronald Reagan. The Search for Reagan explores the challenges and controversies in Reagan's life and how he successfully dealt with each, depicting a man who was never as conservative as some conservatives wanted him to be, but rather as conservative as he was comfortable being—a man who wanted to win on his own terms and integrity. 
     
     
     
    Ronald Reagan was a singularly unique man and conservative who championed a wildly successful revolution—leading to more freedom and less government for the American people and to the fall of communism, while boosting American morale. He was the first president in many years who believed optimism from the Oval Office had a direct bearing on the affairs of the nation. As a consequence, he left office more popular than when he entered, with a whopping 73 percent approval. He understood that American conservatism was based upon the individual and not the group. In his presidency, he solved the mystery of high inflation that had bedeviled his predecessor, high interest rates, and high gas prices. He created over twenty million new jobs, and the number of American millionaires grew from 4,414 to 34,944. He is considered by most historians to be one of our four greatest presidents, along with George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Roosevelt.

    Learn how to make sure you get the correct Social Security benefits, avoid frightening clawbacks, and how to deal with the opaque bureaucracy of Social Security. 
     
     
     
    Social Security admits it has made $21.6 billion in incorrect benefits payments! Now it wants its money back—from widows, orphans, retired schoolteachers, and even young children whose parents received disability benefits on their behalf. 
     
     
     
    Often with no explanation, they send threatening letters clawing back amounts ranging from several thousand dollars to more than $100,000. The clawback notices all carry the threat that benefits will be stopped immediately if a repayment plan is not set. 
     
     
     
    But it's almost impossible to get an explanation, the records, or an appointment for a resolution of these clawback demands. It could happen to you—or to someone you love. 
     
     
     
    We wrote this book to help you and let you know you're not alone. We are also working to pressure Congress and the Treasury Secretary to prevent these intimidating clawback interactions that impact our most vulnerable citizens.

    Through centuries of oppression, we were tenants in our own land.
    Today, despite our independence and new-found affluence, we are in the midst of a crisis.
    The question of who owns Ireland is once again taking on a sense of urgency. Is the land of Ireland still for the people of Ireland?
    In a deep and far-reaching investigation, journalist, broadcaster and No. 1 bestselling author Matt Cooper examines the power wielded by those who control the land where we live, work and play. Who are they, how did they acquire so much and what does it mean for ordinary citizens when the ownership of key resources like shopping centres, wind farms, forestry and data centres comes from outside?
    This is a story about how power and money influence and control the present and the future of Ireland … sometimes for good and sometimes for bad. Filled with riveting detail, this compelling story of who really owns Ireland is an essential account of the issues that affect every single one of us living on this island.
