legal studies/political science

In To Protect and Maintain Individual Rights, Bechtle and Reitz provide a section-by-section analysis of the Washington Constitution’s Declaration of Rights. The authors review the state’s 1889 constitutional debates, contem- porary accounts of the convention, and significant legal cases. Bechtle and Reitz urge citizens to become familiar with their state constitutions, as in- dividual rights are often afforded greater protection from state constitutions than from the U.S. Constitution: “When citizens are educated in the sourc- es of their freedoms, and familiar with attempts in history to limit these freedoms, they are better equipped to recognize new encroachments.”

Jonathan Bechtle is CEO of the Freedom Foundation. He has testified before Congress as an expert on election law, and his research has been published and cited by the Washington Times, the Seattle Times, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, World Magazine, and numerous other media outlets. He earned his J.D. from Oak Brook College of Law, and is a member of the California and Washington bars. Michael J. Reitz is general counsel of the Freedom Foundation, and has rep- resented the Foundation and other clients in cases addressing election law, free speech rights, government accountability, and property rights. He is a member of the Washington and California bars and is admitted to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. www.amppubgroup.com 1 new title

But recent genome evidence shows that much of our non–protein-coding DNA per- forms essential biological functions.

He connects these changes to fundamental shifts in our understanding of what education is, of the purpose and ends of government, and of what it means to be human.
