one of a kind
when i went to look at this book i felt that it might be worth a try. since i usually read books with a mix of dark twists and tough people i instantly warmed up to this book. i was captivated by the realistic points of view he has and how his feelings are so well blended with the story. some storiestoday forget to mix plots and add enough drama to make a good book. this book is mixed just like a good soup.
when i read of harry's betrayel i felt his pain and i thought how dumb could this DA be she just had to know her son was innocent but no she let him be thrown to the dogs.
like good soup, to write a great book you must feel their emotions as if they are your own.

I'll definitely read this again
A well planned story with a gripping, many-layered plot, and characters that came alive.I felt I knew Jude very well: an angry, stubborn, yet honorable kid dealing with his issues just like everyone else. Through Jude, I got to know his father - an intriguing way to show someone's character. But I think my favorite was Dolores and her terse, simple statements.

The dialog was excellent, the pacing was wonderful (I couldn't put it down), and the resolution left me with a smile. If the writing were more polished, this would have gotten five stars. But a re-read is definitely in the future.

Jude
Just a GREAT book.This story has so many twists and turns you won't be able to put it down.My 7th and 8th grade (mature) students always have it on HOLD since I only have two copies. If a none reader picked it up, they would be suprised with themselves that they actually read a 400 page book for the (first time in their life)while holding their breath with each page.

"Pops, I don't think you should do that." Jude said in reference to mixing powder with drugs.Jude knew one day a customer would find out his father's scams.Jude was right.While watching television, Jude hears a gun shot from the kitchen.When he goes to see what has happened, he finds his father dead and the killer still there.Jude and the murder talk and Jude agrees to tell no one about what has gone on.When the man leaves, Jude dials 911.Soon after, Jude's life is turned upside down.He is the main suspect in his father's murder.He is shipped away to live with his mother who he has not seen since he was two years old.Jude starts going to a new school where kids know about his rough past.Kids begin to ask for drugs, but Jude says no.He does not want to end up like his father.But eventually, Jude gives in, attempting to fit in.Rumors soon fly about the boy supplying the school with drugs.They begin to ruin his school career and his mother's chances of being elected mayor.Anthony, Jude's mother's boyfriend, devises a plan to end all rumors and save his mother's chances.Jude agrees and ends up being prosecuted for dealing drugs.Anthony says he will get Jude out of jail after the election, but Anthony lies.Jude ends up spending five years in prison.After serving his time Jude is let out and decides to turn his life around.He also wants to reveal the truth about his father's murder and clear his name.Jude, by Kate Morgenroth is a superb book.The characters are easy to connect with, the plot is suspenseful, and the details are amazing.I would recommend everyone read Jude.
I found it very easy to connect with the characters in this book.Jude was made to be a character that a reader can relate with.I actually cared what happened to him.A reader could feel the pain Jude went through, the disappointment of his mother, and the betral of Anthony.For instance, when Jude realizes he was lied to and will really be spending five years in prison, the felling of let down and being stabbed in the back was present and real.I believe that being able to relate to characters really adds to a books overall affect.
The suspenseful plot of Jude makes a reader want to keep reading.With something always happening, a reader will be anxious to learn the fate of every character.When the book seams to be coming to a conclusion, another thing happens.Jude will defiantly keep a reader turning pages.Personally, I found Jude to be a quick read despite the length because I could not put it down.
The details in this book are amazing.I felt as if I was in it.The description brought the book to life.It was easy to picture the setting and characters.The description of the dark, small, disgusting jail cell made me feel as if I was there going thought all Jude was.
Jude is an amazingly well written book.A reader can connect with characters and feel as if they are part of the book.Jude is a gripping novel and hard to put down.I recommend everyone add Jude to their reading list.

Amazing
This book is the best book that I have ever read. I was almost instantly caught up in the story, and I never put it down once istarted reading it. The characters were very compelling, and I discovered that by the mid-point of the story I was feeling the main character's emotions without the author even having to describe his emotions. When he feels betrayed, I found myself feeling betrayed as well. The story is masterfully crafted, and it kept me reading until I finished it at about two in the morning. The author actually made me feel the passage of time in the book as well. The main character starts at age 15 and ends at age 22. five of those years he spends in prison. I really felt like I was living those seven years with him. All in all it may not be the most enjoyable book I have ever read, as it can be somewhat depressing at times, It is without a doubt the best written book that I have ever read, and I have read everything from Shakespeare to Steinbeck. ...

Product Description
As we enter a new millennium, calls for the renewal of America abound. There is a widespread belief that something is amiss, that the nation is in a period of moral and cultural decline. We still speak of Western civilization, and it remains a reality even though its spiritual foundation has been under siege within Western intellectual circles for more than two centuries.

In "Western Creed, Western Identity," Jude P. Dougherty investigates the classical roots of Western culture and its religious sources in an effort to define its underlying intellectual and spiritual commitments. The essays were written from a single vantage point, one that has come to be identified with Thomas Aquinas, although the natural law outlook they represent is older than Aquinas. While they are the reflections of a spectator formed in the Catholic tradition, they are not theological in character. They are meant to be observations and judgments that can be appreciated by readers who may not identify with that tradition.

The first part of the volume examines the role of religion in society. Dougherty considers the views of Karl Marx and John Dewey, contrasting them with those of Jacques Maritain and John Courtney Murray. The second part of the book examines the nature of the law and the relation between civil law and natural law. Contemporary legal issues bearing upon the assignment of responsibility are addressed in an essay on collective responsibility and in another on the assignment of blame within the context of tort law. Responsibility and punishment are examined within the same framework. The final section brings together a number of essays on the relation of faith and reason. One essay follows the intellectual journey of Edith Stein, another the thought of Jacques Maritain from the beginning of his career to his final works. John Paul II’s "Fides et Ratio" as a defense of reason and the reasonableness of faith is also discussed. ... Read more

THE WORLD BEYOND DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT
The World Beyond Digital Rights Management

This is a great piece of work about DRM and Digital Content by Jude Umeh. It is pretty detailed. The book is excellent for anyone that wants to understand anything about Digital Right Management and issues around Digital Content like illegal downloading and piracy. The diction and content provide solutions to many unanswered questions by some consumersconcerned about the negative effect of piracy on the owners of such materials or content as well as the effectiveness of the existing standard.

I read this book out of curiosity about DRM and even though I am not a technologist or a media person, I was able to understand the issues discussed by the author especially in the early 4 chapters and the last chapter. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. ... Read more
