Love Never Ends
Pat Monahan wrote her second book "Love Never Ends" hoping it will help others who have lost a loved one to death. Her nine year old grandson Tommy died in a house fire trying to rescue his dog Sophie. Following Tommy's death Pat published her first book "To Thee We Do Cry - A Grandmother's Journey Through Grief". That book described the impact that Tommy's life and death had on the community of Staten Island. "Love Never Ends" describes the many signs her family continues to experience since his death. We believe that the deceased can send signs to us, letting us know they are OK and that they are here for us in a spiritual way. These signs bring great comfort to the bereaved. As a Bereavement Minister Pat recognizes the signs can be a major key to acceptance. Pat hopes to shed some light in the darkness of grief.

Constitutional Law
The fifth edition of Constitutional Law represents a significant update of the fourth edition. Since 2013, the Supreme Court of Canada has continued to develop the jurisprudence in all areas of constitutional law, including freedom of association, equality rights, and Indigenous title. The book includes the complete Canadian Constitution.
The Unheard Silence
More than three decades ago, research began on a mysterious story. Parts of which were told me by a desert prospector, nicknamed Seldom Seen Slim, with whom I shared many a campfire evening. These parts worked their way into The Unheard Silence, a novel of fact-based fiction. The story, later semi-confirmed by Texas and Mexico research, seemed to overstate itself. At about that time, while rummaging through Pennsylvania’s erudite extravaganza, The Book Barn, I found and purchased an encyclopedic dictionary left behind somewhere by the 1800s. What fun to use a few of those now-derelict words and to include their meanings and other useful information as footnotes. Hence evolved the format exploited in this book. I hope you enjoy these add-ons.
On the Rule of Law
The rule of law is the most important political ideal today, yet there is much confusion about what it means and how it works. This 2004 book explores the history, politics, and theory surrounding the rule of law ideal, beginning with classical Greek and Roman ideas, elaborating on medieval contributions to the rule of law, and articulating the role played by the rule of law in liberal theory and liberal political systems. The author outlines the concerns of Western conservatives about the decline of the rule of law and suggests reasons why the radical Left have promoted this decline. Two basic theoretical streams of the rule of law are then presented, with an examination of the strengths and weaknesses of each. The book examines the rule of law on a global level, and concludes by answering the question of whether the rule of law is a universal human good.
Divorcing Marriage
Is redefining marriage to include same-sex unions simply an act of fairness to gays and lesbians - another step in the evolution to a just society? Or is it a hastily conceived social experiment that will undermine human rights, deflecting marriage from the support of children to the mere affirmation of sexual commitment between adults? Written for a broad readership, Divorcing Marriage sheds light on three central questions: How did Canada come to the point of proposing a redefinition of marriage? Where would redefinition take Canadian society? Do the Charter and equality rights mandate exchanging an opposite-sex institution for one built on "the union of two persons"? The contributors ask Canadians to pause for reflection and take a closer look at the arguments for and against redefinition of marriage. They implore us to examine the effects of marriage on children, the law, freedom of speech and religion, and society as a whole. The authors are prominent Canadians in the fields of law, ethics, political science, religion, and culture and include, among others, Margaret Somerville, Ted Morton, F.C. DeCoste, Katherine Young, and Conservative Party MP John McKay.
Judging Democracy
In Judging Democracy, Christopher Manfredi and Mark Rush challenge assertions that the Canadian and American Supreme Courts have taken radically different approaches to constitutional interpretation regarding general and democratic rights. Three case studies compare Canadian and American law concerning prisoners' voting rights, the scope and definition of voting rights, and campaign spending. These examples demonstrate that the two Supreme Courts have engaged in essentially the same debates concerning the franchise, access to the ballot, and the concept of a "meaningful" vote. They reveal that the American Supreme Court has never been entirely individualistic in its interpretation and protec...
