After the French Revolution, Switzerland developed from a country in which German dominated linguistically into a confederation of four officially recognised language groups -- German, French, Italian, Romansh -- concentrated in different geographical areas and marked by distinctive cultures and lifestyles. Following a historical overview of this development and the social and political institutionalisation of the linguistic cleavages, McRae’s study examines key elements in the functioning of modern Swiss society; political parties, federal and cantonal institutions, the media, education

The courtroom has been a dramatic setting for larger-than-life figures throughout history, but few have attained the almost mythical status of Clarence Darrow. A legend in his own time, Variety called him "America’s greatest one-man stage draw." Here was a man whose flair for showmanship went hand in hand with a fierce intellect; a man whose shaky moral compass and staggering conceit collided at all turns with an unrivaled eloquence and an overwhelming compassion for humanity. Darrow had been one of the most revered lawyers in the country, but in 1924 his reputation was still clouded

Did people really live for hundreds of years way back when? How big was the ark? Was there really a Garden of Eden? Did Adam and Eve have daughters? Is creation, intelligent design or evolution correct? Do we know when everything came into existence? What does Genesis have to do with me? Why am I here? Who is this Creator God? Does the Voice of God speak to me? Stephen Mayer has been a Bible teacher for three decades and a hig

Cocoa butter soap, check. Lemon lip balm, check. A dead body? That’s just what Sophie Mae Reynolds finds in her workroom: the corpse of Walter Hanover, the neighborhood handyman. He died from drinking lye, something she has in good supply. But the police don’t suspect Sophie Mae, a thirty-something widow who makes and sells beauty products. Instead they call it a suicide. But why would a man with lottery cash and a loving fiancée kill himself? No one can stop the impulsive Sophie Mae from answering this riddle, not her sensible best friend Meghan or Detective Ambrose, who incites
