About the Book A library catalog (catalogue) is a register of the bibliographic items found in a library or network of libraries that are spread over several locations. There are many other types of catalogs, including exhibition catalogs, music catalogs, database catalogs, font catalogs, stamp catalogs and auction catalogs.Also in this Book Contemporary political science began to take on its current form during the latter half of the 19th century. It then began to separate itself from political philosophy, which dates from the time and writings of Chanakya, Aristotle, and Plato almost 2,500 years ago. The term "political science" was not always distinguished from political philosophy, and the modern discipline draws on aspects of moral philosophy, political economy, political theology, history, and other fields. And in this Book In a democracy the political process is the means by which governments are elected, and new governments are formed. It includes a study of political parties and movements that are formed to influence and obtain political power. In non-democratic systems the political process will take different forms, which may also depend on alliances of forces that do not include open and free elections.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.

About the Book Biographical books, or bios, are detailed descriptions of a person's life. A biography is more than simply the basic facts, like education, work, relationships, and death. It portrays a person's experience of major life events. A biography presents a subject's life story, emphasizing certain aspects of his or her life, and including intimate details of their experiences, which may include an analysis of their personality. Biographical works are generally non-fiction, but fictional works can also be used to portray a person's life. An in-depth form of biographical coverage is referred to as legacy writing. An authorized biography refers to a book written with the permission, cooperation, and at times, participation of the subject or the subject's heirs. An autobiography, on the other hand, is written by the person themselves, sometimes with the assistance of a collaborator or “ghostwriter”.
