Book Description
With its ambiguous mix of weak federalist and strong centralist elements, the Austrian constitutional architecture has been subject to conflicting interpretations and claims from its very beginning. The written 1920 constitution has been paralleled by informal rules and forces making up for the imbalance of power between national and subnational authorities. Understanding these inherent weaknesses, virtually all political actors involved are well aware that reforming the allocation of rights and duties between the different levels in the federal state is urgently needed. In recent years, several initiatives of recalibrating the system of power-sharing between the different levels of government have been initiated. So far progress has been modest, yet the reform process is still underway. The contributions to this volume shine a light on history, presence, and future aspects of the Austrian federal system from historical, juridical, economic, and political science perspective. The volume is also the first book in English ever devoted to the Austrian version of federalism.

Book Description
Blessings For You From Head To Toe is the most recent book by author Jack H. Bloom. The blessing poems herein, created by Jack H. Bloom, are presented without attribution. Originating over the years as New Year's greetings, the poems use various parts of the body as starting points. Bloom feels the poems and readings attributed to others have touched and blessed him deeply, while the wonderful paintings were created by Ingrid Bloom, his wife, and the love of his life – a blessing beyond compare. “May our work bless all you are and all those for whom you care.”

Book Description
Edward Koren is best known for his cartoons and covers for The New Yorker magazine. This book explores the full range of the art he has produced during the past five decades: original drawings for cartoons and illustrated books as well as prints and posters. A variety of finished drawings are included--figures that emerged from the commedia dell'arte, fanciful beasts that might occupy a diorama in the American Museum of Natural History, cyclists pedaling through cities and countryside--all documenting the inventive play of the artist's imagination through the motion of his pen or pencil.

This is the story of the career and ideas of one of the twentieth-century's leading intellectuals. Jacques Barzun was the author of some thirty books of biography, history, and cultural criticism, among them the best-sellers "The House of Intellect," an indictment of governmental and foundation interference with the autonomy of scholars and universities, and "From Dawn to Decadence," an argument that the West was falling into decay and incapacity.
