Additionally, it explains why, despite popular and political desires, a significant overhaul of the tax system is very unlikely to be enacted: because tax expenditures (otherwise known as loopholes) benefit all Americans in...

Disquiet
ISBN: 9780295994512 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Disquiet is a collection of poems that utilizes natural phenomena--a bright beach, a fallen tree limb, the weight of gravity--to evoke and reflect upon memory and human experience. The poems are structurally innovative, each shaped around a central axis as they trace the speaker's growth from childhood to adulthood. Acute observations resonate throughout the book as its focus shifts from the natural world to the world of the made--the grocery cart or pie-case or microscope--to the world of visual art, and then back. The poems are subtly braided together in a way reminiscent of the...

ISBN: 9780367007829 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the past, Christianity has had both positive and negative influences on democracy.

Christian theology has helped to cultivate democratic ideas of equality, liberty, and responsibility. But it has also helped to perpetuate repressive ideas of statism, elitism, and chauvinism. In the future, Christian attitudes and actions concerning democracy will face a formidable challenge—both from inside and outside...
