used books,books, Bass player Reid Taylor is floundering and trying to find his place in life when he gets the opportunity to join a new band being put together by his friend Barry, a flaky but talented lead guitarist. The band begins making exciting songs. But Reid sees that brilliant drummer Clay Hicks is filled with terrible personal demons, a threat to himself and the band. Nobody wants to hear from Reid about it, because the music is sounding so good. But Clay's behavior is becoming more and more dangerous. Reid falls in love with Kristy, the beautiful girl who loves him even when he's broke and unknown, but begins to fear for her safety. As the band starts to perform and get attention, Reid alone is the one who faces up to the frightening truth: Clay's demons are going to get somebody killed. It's up to Reid to protect not only the band, but the lives of those he cares about if he can-and in doing so maybe, just maybe, become who he really is.

Freedom and Time: A Theory of Constitutional Self-Government

history and theory,political science,politics and government,politics and social sciences, Should we try to live in the present? Such is the imperative of modernity, Jed Rubenfeld writes in this important and original work of political theory. Since Jefferson proclaimed that 'the earth belongs to the living', since Freud announced that mental health requires people to 'get free of their past', since Nietzsche declared that the happy man is the man who 'leaps into the moment', modernity has directed its inhabitants to live in the present, as if there alone could they find happiness, authenticity, and above all freedom. But this imperative, Rubenfeld argues, rests on a profoundly inadequate, deforming picture of the relationship between freedom and time. Instead, Rubenfeld suggests, human freedom, indeed human being itself, necessarily extends into both past and future; self-government consists of giving our lives meaning and purpose over time. From this conception of self-government, Rubenfeld derives a new theory of constitutional law's place in democracy. Democracy, he writes, is not a matter of governance by the present 'will of the people'; it is a matter of a nation's laying down and living up to enduring political and legal commitments. Constitutionalism is not counter to democracy, as many believe, or a pre-condition of democracy; it is or should be democracy itself over time. On this basis, Rubenfeld offers a new understanding of constitutional interpretation and of the fundamental right of privacy.
