World War II played an important role in the trajectory of race and
American political development, but the War's effects were much
more complex than many assume. Steven White offers an extensive
analysis of rarely utilized survey data and archival evidence to
assess white racial attitudes and the executive branch response to
civil rights advocacy. He finds that, contrary to conventional
wisdom, the white mass public's racial policy attitudes largely did
not liberalize during the war against Nazi Germany. In this
context, advocates turned their attention to the possibility of
unilateral action by the president, emphasizing a wartime civil
rights agenda focused on discrimination in the defense industry and
segregation in the military. This book offers a reinterpretation of
this critical period in American political development, as well as
implications for the theoretical relationship between war and the
inclusion of marginalized groups in democratic societies.

This book focuses on animal laws and animal welfare in major
jurisdictions in the world, including the more developed legal
regimes for animal protection of the US, UK, Australia, the EU and
Israel, and the regulatory regimes still developing in China, South
Africa, and Brazil. It offers in-depth analyses and discussions of
topical and important issues in animal laws and animal welfare, and
provides a comprehensive and comparative snapshot of some of the
most important countries in the world in terms of animal population
and worsening animal cruelty. Among the issues discussed are
international law topics that relate to animals, including the
latest WTO ruling on seal products and the EU ban, the Blackfish
story and US law for cetaceans, the wildlife trafficking and crimes
related to Africa and China, and historical and current animal
protection laws in the UK and Australia. Bringing together the
disciplines of animal law and animal welfare science as well as
ethics and criminology with contributions from some of the most
prominent animal welfare scientists and animal law scholars in the
world, the book considers the strengths and failings of existing
animal protection law in different parts of the world. In doing so
it draws more attention to animal protection as a moral and legal
imperative and to crimes against animals as a serious crime.

This book is the culmination of over 30 years in the health and
supplement industry. The book was written to illustrate the
simplicity of living a healthier lifestyle. Too many books are
written on the subject of better health, diet, exercise,
supplements, etc. that complicate the issues to the point that the
public often finds it overwhelming to attempt to make the changes
that seem to be necessary in their lives. This book will take the
only three factors that really matter to one's health, namely diet,
exercise and supplementation and show how each may be implemented
in one's life without major impact, changes or expenses. The number
one reason why people don't attempt to live a healthier lifestyle
is that they feel it is too difficult or restrictive. This book
will show just how few changes are necessary to dramatically
improve one's health and the prospest of a longer lifespan.
