In almost every news cycle, we hear people asserting their need to obtain justice. We all want justice for ourselves. We regularly pledge to support the concept of justice for all. When there are many different claims and types of justice an understanding of the fundamental nature of justice will help guide future decisions and actions. Understanding justice is foundational to making good decisions by those in government, in private business, and in life. Decisions that promote justice ensure the well-being of all persons affected by the decisions. America is founded upon the rule of law. The desire to do justice in the creation and enforcement of law should be supported by an understanding of the nature of justice. It is incumbent for all of us to live in a manner that promotes justice for all. This book illuminates a guiding thread through all claims of justice. The book begins with a story of a Vietnam veteran suffering from PTSD who did not receive justice in a criminal court. The search for justice reveals the fundamental nature of justice and a guiding statement of principle. This principle is then applied to all claims for justice including in American history, the Civil War, racial justice, economic justice, social justice, and environmental justice. The last chapter covers how to govern with justice by applying the developed principle to governmental decisions. The conclusion concerns how to live justly. America's greatness depends on the extent to which all her citizens can be provided justice.
