Sommario/riassunto

Many legal theorists and judges agree on one major premise in the field of law and religion: that religion clause jurisprudence is in a state of disarray and has been for some time. In Masters of Illusion , Frank S. Ravitch provocatively contends that both hard originalism (a strict focus on the intent of the Framers) and neutrality are illusory in religion clause jurisprudence, the former because it cannot live up to its promise for either side in the debate and the latter because it is simply impossible in the religion clause context. Yet these two principles have been used in almost every S

Sommario/riassunto

"A magical story full of humor and heart." -Katherine Applegate, Newbery-winning author of  The One and Only Ivan          For fans of  The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom  comes an offbeat, comedic spin on the Excalibur legend told from the point of view of a talking dog who wants to be a magician!       Meet Nosewise. He's spunky. He's curious. And he's a dog who can't understand why his pack mates Merlin and Morgana spend all day practicing magic tricks. If it's a trick they want, he's the dog to ask! He can already Sit!, Stay!, and Roll Over!     But there's no way Nosewise is Stay!ing when his master and best friend, Merlin, is kidnapped. There's nothing Nosewise won't do to get Merlin back, even if it means facing the strange Fae people and their magic-eating worms, or tangling with the mysterious Sword in the Stone. But it may take more than sniffing out a spell to do it!     Nosewise's hilarious escapades and steadfast loyalty get him and his companions through King Arthur's Dark Ages.  "An entertaining adventure full of humor and magic"   -Booklist     "A delightful magical fantasy, perfect for fans of fairy tales, legends, and dogs."   -School Library Journal    "An ingenious and entirely credible (at least dog lovers will agree with this) twist on the familiar tale."   -Kirkus Reviews     "Nosewise is one of the silliest narrators around." -  The Bulletin
