Theory of Rules
¥311.96
Karl N. Llewellyn was one of the founders and major figures of legal realism, and his many keen insights have a central place in American law and legal understanding. Key to Llewellyn's thinking was his conception of rules, put forward in his numerous writings and most famously in his often mischaracterized declaration that they are "pretty playthings." Previously unpublished, The Theory of Rules is the most cogent presentation of his profound and insightful thinking about the life of rules.This book frames the development of Llewellyn's thinking and describes the difference between what rules literally prescribe and what is actually done, with the gap explained by a complex array of practices, conventions, professional skills, and idiosyncrasies, most of which are devoted to achieving a law's larger purpose rather than merely following the letter of a particular rule. Edited, annotated, and with an extensive analytic introduction by leading contemporary legal scholar Frederick Schauer, this rediscovered work contains material not found elsewhere in Llewellyn's writings and will prove a valuable contribution to the existing literature on legal realism.

Te mit tennél, ha kiderülne, hogy már csak másfél éved van hátra? Magadba roskadva jajveszékelnél, és hagynád, hogy pocsékba menjen minden napod, vagy ?sszeszednéd tartalék er?idet, amit arra használnál, hogy tartalmasan éld hátralév? napjaidat? Nos, én az utóbbit választottam. ?gy d?nt?ttem, belevágok e k?nyv megírásába, hátha okul a hibáimból valaki. Akárki. Vajon beválik az a kísérleti gyógyszer, amely talán visszafordíthatja a betegségemet, vagy ez a k?nyv lesz minden, amit ?r?kül hagyhatok az utókornak? ...és vajon képes vagyok megbocsátani annak, aki t?nkretette az életemet – vagyis magamnak?

S? ascult?m avertismentul megalitic al trecutului!Baz?ndu-se pe teoria sa revolu?ionar? potrivit c?reia Sfinxul din Egipt dateaz? cu mult mai devreme dec?t 2500 ?.Hr., geologul Robert Schoch apeleaz? la dovezi ?tiin?ifice pentru a confirma existen?a unei civiliza?ii avansate care le preced? pe cele ale Egiptului, Sumerului ?i Greciei Antice. De asemenea, vorbe?te ?i despre catastrofa care a distrus-o acum aproape 12 000 de ani, afirm?nd c? mo?tenirea acesteia ne poate da ?nv???turi pre?ioase privind viitorul omenirii.Combin?nd dovezi adunate din mai multe discipline ?tiin?ifice, Schoch demonstreaz? c? ultima er? glaciar? s-a sf?r?it brusc ?n 9700 ?.Hr., ca urmare a unor explozii solare. Acestea au provocat desc?rc?ri electrice/plasmatice care au declan?at activitate vulcanic?, cutremure, incendii ?i inunda?ii masive provenite din topirea ghe?arilor ?i de la ploile toren?iale.Autorul explic? modul ?n care aceste evenimente au eradicat civiliza?ia vremii ?i au dat omenirea ?napoi cu mii de ani. Civiliza?ia a reap?rut ?n jurul anului 3500 ?.Hr., cu fr?nturi de memorie ?i aptitudini pe cale s? se formeze. ?n acest cadru, el analizeaz? leg?tura dintre monumentele megalitice, ora?ele subterane ?i legendele antice, precum ?i reinterpretarea textelor rongorongo de pe Insula Pa?telui ?i ?ngroparea inten?ionat?, ?n urm? cu 10 000 de ani, a complexului de la G?bekli Tepe din Turcia.Schoch prezint? dovezile ?tiin?ifice care sugereaz? c? istoria s-ar putea repeta ?i un flux de mas? coronal? suficient de puternic ar putea distruge civiliza?ia actual?.?

The Aegean Sea Dispute between Greece and Turkey: The Consequences for NATO and
¥63.19
The Aegean dispute between Greece and Turkey is a persistent problem between the two allied states. Difference of interpretation of the treaties has contributed in the prevalence of the argument. This dispute consists of five key issues. Greece only accepts one, namely the delimitation of the continental shelf. However, Turkey has introduced and has persisted on the other four, which are the delimitation of the territorial seas, the national airspace and FIR controls over the Aegean Sea, the demilitarization of the Eastern Aegean Islands and finally the disputed islands, islets and rocks which have presented the grey zones issue. All of these matters have persisted for so long, especially after the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923 where the current status quo in the Aegean was introduced, due to economic, political and strategic reasons. The Aegean dispute does not only have consequences for Greece and Turkey; it also affects, negatively, NATO and the European Union. This is an ongoing problem, which if not solved it will produce future problems, not only for the two states, but also for NATO and the EU. A third party may be needed in order to assist in finding a just and permanent solution concerning this dispute, since Greece and Turkey seem incapable of solving this dispute by themselves.

Book of Judas

At his funeral, years later, their world is about to be shattered once again – in fact the entire world as we know it faces an Armageddon of unimaginable evil. In Sir Lawrence’s will, he entrusts to the brothers the terrible secret he uncovered in the Holy Lands – some ancient apparently Biblical scrolls. But these were not the testaments of Mathew, Mark or John but of Judas… “The truth was potentially explosive. We had found the map and instructions to the biggest religious discovery of all time… Not only that, but if the Book of Judas really existed it was prophesised that its unearthing would destroy the pillars upon which the entire Christian religion had grown… It had the power to unlock the devil himself.” The very knowledge of their existence is deadly. Now Sir Lawrence is gone the Vatican is determined to claim the secret that undermines its raison d’être and their hired agents will stop at nothing. Worse still, is the knowledge that the Antichrist’s disciples on earth, The Satanica, have unleashed an assassin of pure, implacable evil leaving hideously mutilated bodies in his wake as he follows the Trenchard brothers on their quest. In a terrifying, nail-biting mission that takes us from leafy Oxfordshire to the Dead Sea; from Greece to the Vatican, the brothers travel the world to save the world – and themselves – from Satan’s ultimate revenge Language English
