Evidence Under the Rules: Text, Cases, and Problems is one of the?most widely adopted Evidence casebooks ever published. Structured around the Federal Rules of Evidence, the book contains carefully edited cases and secondary materials, as well as numerous problems that allow students to apply new concepts during classroom exercises or on their own. Text boxes provide interesting background on select cases and additional perspectives on key issues. New to the 10th Edition: Additional problems are provided, and often these are combined into the Notes following cases and other materials. These problems generate good classroom discussion, without displacing conversations about the cases and the principles under consideration. The book is also redesigned, with more colors on the page, and other design features that provide clues to the content of the textual material. The Note material, found after cases and textual accounts, includes organizational headings that act as signposts calling the attention of students to the key issues. The book retains the old favorites, like Boys on the Bridge (Problem 2-C), A Papier Mache Man (Problem 3-I), and “If You Want to Stay Healthy (Problem 4_Q). New end-of-chapter quizzes are included to help in the review of the materials. A thoroughly updated and expanded Index. Benefits for instructors and students: Introductory text that provides a foundation for understanding the cases and materials that follow. Numerous problems that treat cutting-edge issues, allowing students to apply important concepts to contemporary evidentiary problems. A Teacher’s Manual that provides suggestions by the authors for discussing the Notes and cases. “Comment/Perspective” text boxes that provide broader perspectives to aid in understanding doctrine. Sidebars that contain photographs and text relating to important cases, offering background on how the evidence issue arose.

The Witches of Vardo
Author: Anya Bergman
Publisher: Bonnier Zaffre Ltd.
ISBN: 1786581930
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
They will have justice. They will show their power. They will not burn. 'Three women's fight for survival in a time of madness' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies Norway, 1662. A dangerous time to be a woman, when even dancing can lead to accusations of witchcraft. After recently widowed Zigri's affair with the local merchant is discovered, she is sent to the fortress at Vardø to be tried as a witch. Zigri's daughter Ingeborg sets off into the wilderness to try to bring her mother back home. Accompanying her on this quest is Maren - herself the daughter of a witch - whose wild nature and unconquerable spirit gives Ingeborg the courage to venture into the unknown, and to risk all she has to save her family. Also captive in the fortress is Anna Rhodius, once the King of Denmark's mistress, who has been sent in disgrace to the island of Vardø. What will she do - and who will she betray - to return to her privileged life at court? These Witches of Vardø are stronger than even the King. In an age weighted against them, they refuse to be victims. They will have their justice. All they need do is show their power. 'An intricately woven, timeless novel about prejudice, misogyny, freedom and the power and strength we can find within' - Christy Lefteri, author of The Beekeeper of Aleppo 'A passionate indictment of the patriarchy ... a vibrant exaltation of the resilience of women ... Anya Bergman summons a historic witch trial with breathtaking detail and immediacy' Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites 'Brilliant and powerful. Haunting and beautifully written. A complex and gripping novel reclaiming and retelling the stories of the women accused of witchcraft in Norway. Hugely atmospheric. Read it!' - Liz Hyder, author of The Gifts

War and Peace I
Author: Leo Tolstoy
Publisher: Lindhardt og Ringhof
ISBN: 8726607557
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
"I'm not looking for 'War and Peace'" is a modern way of saying "keep it short". However, "I am looking for 'War and Peace'" should be on our lips. Leo Tolstoy's masterpiece is a complete semester of Russian and French history, using the zoom button to focus on its impact on families from the aristocracy to the peasants. 'War and Peace I' introduces the five aristocratic families at the heart of the plot. It paints a picture of petty jealousy, pride and forbidden love in the Russian stately homes and ends after the Battle of Austerlitz between Russia and France. If you like costume dramas and the novels of Jane Austen ('Pride and Prejudice', 'Sense and Sensibility'), this is the granddaddy of them all. The same goes for fans of Bernard Cornwell's 'Sharpe' novels and TV series', starring Sean Bean. 'War and Peace' was made into a BBC TV series in 2016, written by Andrew Davies and starring Lily James and James Norton. Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) was a Russian author, a master of realistic fiction and one of the world’s greatest novelists. Tolstoy’s major works include 'War and Peace' (1865–69) and 'Anna Karenina' (1875–77), two of the greatest novels of all time and pinnacles of realist fiction. Beyond novels, he wrote many short stories and later in life also essays and plays. In the years following the publication of 'War and Peace' Tolstoy - who was born to a Russian aristocratic family - had a spiritual awakening that made him a committed Christian anarchist and pacifist. His philosophy inspired Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.

War and Peace
Author: Leo Tolstoi
Publisher: Collector's Library
ISBN: 9781904633853
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 1662
Book Description
Widely regarded as the greatest novel in any language, War and Peace is primarily concerned with the histories of five aristocratic families--particularly the Bezukhovs, the Bolkonskys, and the Rostovs--the members of which are portrayed against a vivid background of Russian social life during the war against Napoleon (1805-14). The theme of war, however, is subordinate to the story of family existence, which involves Tolstoy's optimistic belief in the life-asserting pattern of human existence. The heroine, Natasha Rostova, for example, reaches her greatest fulfilment through her marriage to Pierre Bezukhov and her motherhood. The novel also sets forth a theory of history, concluding that there is a minimum of free choice; all is ruled by an inexorable historical determinism

The World in a Selfie
Author: Marco D'Eramo
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1788731077
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
A spirited critique of the cultural politics of the tourist age. Or, why we are all tourists who hate tourists We've all been tourists at some point in our lives. How is it we look so condescendingly at people taking selfies in front of the Tower of Pisa? Is there really much to distinguish the package holiday from hipster city-breaks to Berlin or Brooklyn? Why do we engage our free time in an activity we profess to despise? The World in a Selfie dissects a global cultural phenomenon. For Marco D'Eramo, tourism is not just the most important industry of the century, generating huge waves of people and capital, calling forth a dedicated infrastructure, and upsetting and repurposing the architecture and topography of our cities. It also encapsulates the problem of modernity: the search for authenticity in a world of ersatz pleasures. D'Eramo retraces the grand tours of the first globetrotters - from Francis Bacon and Samuel Johnson to Arthur de Gobineau and Mark Twain - before assessing the cultural meaning of the beach holiday and the 'UNESCO-cide' of major heritage sites. The tourist selfie will never look the same again.
