One of his first cases was that of Walter McMillian, a young man who was sentenced to die for a notorious murder he insisted he didn’t commit. The case drew Bryan into a tangle of conspiracy, political machination, and legal brinksmanship—and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever.   Just Mercy is at once an unforgettable account of an idealistic, gifted young lawyer’s coming of age, a moving window into the lives of those he has defended, and an inspiring argument for compassion in the pursuit of true justice.   Praise for Just Mercy  “Every bit as moving as To Kill a Mockingbird, and in some ways more so . . . a searing indictment of American criminal justice and a stirring testament to the salvation that fighting for the vulnerable sometimes yields.”—David Cole, The New York Review of Books   “Searing, moving . . . Bryan Stevenson may, indeed, be America’s Mandela.”—Nicholas Kristof, The New York Times   “You don’t have to read too long to start cheering for this man. . . . The message of this book . . . is that evil can be overcome, a difference can be made. Just Mercy will make you upset and it will make you hopeful.”—Ted Conover, The New York Times Book Review   “Inspiring . . . a work of style, substance and clarity . . . Stevenson is not only a great lawyer, he’s also a gifted writer and storyteller.”—The Washington Post   “As deeply moving, poignant and powerful a book as has been, and maybe ever can be, written about the death penalty.”—The Financial Times   “Brilliant.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer   “Not since Atticus Finch has a fearless and committed lawyer made such a difference in the American South. Though larger than life, Atticus exists only in fiction. Bryan Stevenson, however, is very much alive and doing God’s work fighting for the poor, the oppressed, the voiceless, the vulnerable, the outcast, and those with no hope. Just Mercy is his inspiring and powerful story.”—John Grisham   “Bryan Stevenson is one of my personal heroes, perhaps the most inspiring and influential crusader for justice alive today, and Just Mercy is extraordinary.

As people change, so do the ways they use and think about land: land law today looks very different from how it did fifty years ago, and in anothergeneration's time it will have changed again.Elizabeth Cooke introduces the building blocks of land law, namely property rights in land, and explains how they have evolved by a mixture of design and accident.

Adopting an internal legal perspective, Robert Leckey addresses that gap by reporting on the processes and activities of judges of the highest courts of Canada, South Africa and the United Kingdom as they apply their relatively new bills of rights. Rejecting the tendency to view rights adjudication as novel and unique, he connects it to the tradition of judging and judicial review in the Commonwealth and identifies respects in which judges' activities in rights cases genuinely are novel - and problematic. Highlighting inventiveness in rights adjudication, including creative remedies and guidance to legislative drafters, he challenges classifications of review as strong or weak. Disputing claims that it is modest and dialogic, he also argues that remedial discretion denies justice to individuals and undermines constitutional supremacy.","Cambridge University Press","May 2015",,9781316288092,"US$ 36.00",,"{ ""57"": { ""category_1_x_book.id"": 57, ""category_1.id"": 6, ""category_1.ts"": ""2017-03-27 00:59:51"", ""category_1.title"": ""Law"" } }","{ ""54"": { ""book_image.id"": 54, ""book_image.path"": ""/04/a5/6b/fe/04a56bfed5ea1d0f26031c347de0211a815a034f.jpg"", ""book_image._image"": ""https://songer.datasn.com/data/api/v1/u_15ff9ad43f41a2ff2f41/book_14/main/book_image//04/a5/6b/fe/04a56bfed5ea1d0f26031c347de0211a815a034f.jpg"" } }" 58,"2017-04-05 22:37:33","Tort Law and Social Morality","Peter M.

Drawing on Kantian and Rawlsian philosophy, and on the insights of game theorist Ken Binmore, this book refocuses tort law on a single theory of responsibility that explains and justifies the broad range of tort doctrine and concepts. Under this theory, tort law asks people to appropriately incorporate the well-being of others into the decisions they make, explains when that duty applies, and explains the scope and limits of that duty. The theory also incorporates a theory of the evolutionary development of social values that people use, and ought to use, in meeting that duty and explains how decision-making from behind the veil of ignorance allows us to evaluate the is in light of the ought.","Cambridge University Press","April 2010",288,9780511848490,"US$ 33.00",,"{ ""58"": { ""category_1_x_book.id"": 58, ""category_1.id"": 6, ""category_1.ts"": ""2017-03-27 00:59:51"", ""category_1.title"": ""Law"" } }","{ ""55"": { ""book_image.id"": 55, ""book_image.path"": ""/dc/59/a3/52/dc59a3525f29afe558415829115af2c800278ea7.jpg"", ""book_image._image"": ""https://songer.datasn.com/data/api/v1/u_15ff9ad43f41a2ff2f41/book_14/main/book_image//dc/59/a3/52/dc59a3525f29afe558415829115af2c800278ea7.jpg"" } }" 59,"2017-04-06 02:24:36","The Early History of the Law of Bills and Notes","James Steven Rogers","Cambridge University Press 1995; US$ 41.00","A Study of the Origins of Anglo-American Commercial Law","This study traces the history of the law of bills and notes in England from medieval times to the period in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries when bills played a central role in the domestic and international financial system. It challenges the traditional theory that English commercial law developed by incorporation of the concept of negotiability and other rules from an ancient body of customary law known as the law merchant. Rogers shows that the law of bills was developed within the common law system itself, in response to changing economic and business practices. This account draws on economic and business history to explain how bills were actually used and to examine the relationship between the law of bills and economic and social controversies.","Cambridge University Press","March 1995",298,9780511883040,"US$ 41.00",,"{ ""59"": { ""category_1_x_book.id"": 59, ""category_1.id"": 6, ""category_1.ts"": ""2017-03-27 00:59:51"", ""category_1.title"": ""Law"" } }","{ ""56"": { ""book_image.id"": 56, ""book_image.path"": ""/e5/e5/d3/df/e5e5d3df0050de1cd5c72a963cc425ee3656f784.jpg"", ""book_image._image"": ""https://songer.datasn.com/data/api/v1/u_15ff9ad43f41a2ff2f41/book_14/main/book_image//e5/e5/d3/df/e5e5d3df0050de1cd5c72a963cc425ee3656f784.jpg"" } }" 60,"2017-04-05 22:37:39","Principles of Cybercrime","Jonathan Clough","Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 60.00",,"We live in a digital age.

The challenge for all countries is to ensure their criminal laws keep pace. The challenge is a global one, and much can be learned from the experience of other jurisdictions.
