Sommario/riassunto

This book is a major contribution to the renewed interest in natural law. It provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of natural law, both from a historical and a systematic point of view. It ranges from the mediaeval synthesis of Aquinas through the early modern elaborations of natural law, up to current discussions on the very possibility and practical relevance of natural law theory for the contemporary mind.

Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Tom Tancredo in his book "In Mortal Danger: The Battle for America's Border and Security". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Tom Tancredo's book.<br>Tancredo explains that the American immigration system is broke and corrupt and he argues that despite the 9/11 attacks American borders are still a grave security risk. <br>
