Beneath the surface of modern governance lies a hidden tug of war, silently shaping the fabric of law and politics in liberal democracies. This book uncovers and explores the two enduring sets of ideas behind this conflict - natural law and utilitarianism.From the world's largest hydroelectric facility to vaccine mandates and government tax-and-spend policies, You: The Greatest Good explores and reveals the diverse moral roots that have laid the groundwork and influenced the current direction of Western nations in the 21st century.Examine the history, great minds, arguments, and applications of these two giants of moral philosophy and see how natural law is - now more than ever - in need of a resurgence. This is not a call to selfishness. Instead, this book simply aims to demonstrate that everyone should be treated as their own end rather than just another cog in the machine.

Two lovers - Mitch and A.J. - find themselves torn apart by the winds of World War II. What keeps their love alive? Dearest A.J. tells the story of secret letters locked in A.J.'s heart and hidden for more than fifty years. They held the aroma of romance, the sounds of war, and the pain of parting. Who knew A.J. kept these treasures of her heart after all these years? It also chronicles Mitch's war as part of "The Greatest Generation," who defeated the tyrant of their age. From the frontlines of Mitch's service through North Africa, Sicily, and Italy, his letters tie their hearts together across an ocean and through a war. Dearest A.J. takes you back to a simpler time free of social media, iPhones, and everywhere communication. A time when men and women put pen to paper and wrote tender words, passionate words marinated in the heart over days, weeks, and even months.
Mitchell is sent on a quest to find the sword of power, lost to the kingdom when the great General Kingston died in battle. It is believed to be hidden amongst the ruins of King Deranz's castle.

Will Mitchell be able to get the sword back and learn how to use the sword's true power before another great battle destroys the kingdom or would he fail just like his ancestors?
Discover new approaches to promote a viable forest industry while protecting non-timber values!Frontiers of Forest Biology: Proceedings of the 1998 Joint Meeting of the North American Forest Biology Workshop and the Western Forest Genetics Association gives you significant new insights on current initiatives in forest biology. Because the field is changing rapidly, you need to keep aware of current trends, as the emphasis in forest research shifts from productivity-based goals to sustainable development of forest resources. In this volume, you will find a comprehensive summary of the state of the art of forest science in North America. Whether your focus is on genetics or on the environmental aspects of forest science, plant physiology, or silviculture, you will find helpful chapters by practitioners as well as cutting-edge research by scientists. This integrated approach is unique in the field. Based on the 1998 Joint Meeting of the North American Forest Biology Workshop and the Western Forest Genetics Association, Frontiers of Forest Biology addresses changing priorities in forest resource management.
