Bøger af Joseph Esposito

Joseph Esposito takes you on a journey through time, through poetry and story. Come find peace and promise through God in the pages of Time Escapes. Time escapes a little bit each moment of every day. Each new day is a gift from God, not to be wasted. The morning sunrise is a precious bonus, missed by many. Like a perfect cup of tea, it should be savored.The older we become, the more swiftly time seems to pass. As a youth, it seems like we will never reach those milestones we long for. In our later years, we marvel at how quickly we flew past them. Now we look for ways to escape the ever-increasing passage of time; to create better strategies to capture and manage our time.Because I can do what comes to mind, I have a mind of a different kind.Because I can feel the unseen power, I can recreate by the hour.Because I can listen to what must be heard, I can hang on to your every word.Because I can do what is right, some may like to argue and fight.Because I can find power when I am weak, I can listen when the Lord chooses to speak.Because I can revel in the moment, I can stay straight and never get bent.

This book provides a survey of important topics arising out of the interaction of law and morality, primarily within the American legal tradition. Its focus is on an examination of relevant case law. The book is divided into three sections: (1) Theory: Some general theories of the relation between law and morality. (2) Method: How the law attempts to deal with evolving issues of law and morality using the common law and the ethical and procedural norms of judicial reasoning; (3) Practice: A survey of topics where case law is seen as a response to controversial moral conflicts that arise within American culture and social life. Law and Morality can be seen as a core text for courses in the general area of 'law and morality' or 'law and ethics' taught in philosophy departments; multi-disciplinary curricula involving Philosophy, Politics, and Law; pre-law courses on an undergraduate level; and courses in law schools that take up 'law and philosophy' issues. It is an important reference work for international legal scholars, and those interested in obtaining in a single volume a broad range of information about how the American legal system has evolved in dealing with moral and ethical conflicts through law.
