Описание:
This fast-paced, inspiring and original work proposes that the secular legal systems around the world provide an immeasurably bigger and more comprehensive moral regime to govern our lives than the religious codes. Backed by potent and haunting images the book states that the law, for all its faults, is the one universal ethical framework that everyone believes in and that the law is now by far the most important ideology we have for our survival. The reach of the law extends not just to crime and the family, but also to vast realms relating, for example, to money, banks, tax and corporations and even securitisations and derivatives. The immense influence that the law has raises fundamental moral challenges. The author explores the decline of religions and the huge growth of law and makes suggestions for the future of law and lawyers. The innovative summaries of both the main religions and the central tenets of law worldwide provide useful insights into both the law and religions. The book will appeal to lawyers, economists, philosophers, scientists and many other specialities and is written for the general reader. Written by one of the most important lawyers of our generation, this exciting and powerful new paperback is a major philosophical statement for our times as witnessed by its enthusiastic reception when first published in 2016.
How did the New York Yankees, home to so many legends such as Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, go from dominating "America's pastime" from 1921-1964 to falling into last place in 1966? Author Philip Bashe shares his unique take on the abrupt collapse of the Yankees' dynasty and the team's decade-long climb back to the top. Mickey Mantle's retiring in '69 and Roger Maris's serious injuries left the Yankees' dugout "devoid of a single superstar" for the first time in decades. Management's inability to replace this outgoing talent perpetuated the drought that would plague the Yankees for the next 11 years. Poor handling of the team's few remarkable talents, unfortunate trades, and leadership shortcomings kept the Yankees anchored in failure.
But there's more to it than that. Bashe looks at the dog days of the Yankees in a wider social context of 1960's America, giving a refreshing texture and depth to this period of sports history. Yankee haters will revel in the recounting of the team's epic slump, and Yankee fans will get a better understanding of their team's history, and rejoice in their dramatic return to glory in the '76 pennant race.

Описание: Philip tackles the major problems posed by military radicalism in Peru between 1968 and 1976. He discusses the ideology of the military, the commitment of the officer corps to reform, the degree of reformism, and the limits of popular participation, and attempts to answer why it was possible for a radical military government to arise in Peru. The answers contribute not only to an understanding of modern Peru but also to the general study of the military in politics.
