Book Description
Seventy years ago, an Ivy League-educated lawyer, his wife from a prominent Midwestern media family, and their four children moved to a small town in Southwestern Colorado. They bought two struggling newspapers, melded them into one and started building a legacy – one issue at a time. Arthur and Morley Ballantine not only made Durango their home, they helped mobilize their fellow business owners and neighbors to transform that sleepy little community into a thriving center of education, culture, enterprise, and philanthropy. The Durango Herald quickly became known as an award-winning publication staffed with hard-working, industrious journalists who wouldn’t shy from an important story, no matter who might want it quashed. This is the story of a community-minded family with deep connections in the highest levels of government and education. It is the story of how their newspaper has kept its subscribers informed of important issues and news stories big and small. It is a reminder of local newspapers’ unique role as the glue that binds and enlightens the people of their towns. The Ballantines: Building Community Issue by Issue not only traces the history of a remarkable family, but also reminds us of the vital role that quality journalism plays as the underpinning of a community.

Book Description
Catherine Carson didn’t think there was an ideal man out there. And the last one she would have picked for the job was Jarrod Ballantine. He’d been a thorn in her side since she was a child, but he’d also been with her when life was at its roughest. Convincing him to be her husband proved an easier task than stopping herself from becoming his wife. Fed up with her meddling family, Catherine has the perfect plan...make a deal with a nice, unexciting guy who would agree to marry her for six months, then divorce. And she knew her childhood friend Jarrod Ballantine was just the perfect man for the job–until he sparked a completely unexpected desire. Now, Catherine must discover what she really wants to find...everything she’s ever dreamed of.

Book Description
Frankrigs fald i løbet af kun 6 uger i maj/juni 1940, hvor den ellers så mægtige franske hær måtte opgive overfor tyskernes sejrrige Blitzkrieg-taktik, kapitulationen, våbenstilstanden og Hitlers sejrsindtogsmach i Paris. Bogen er i Ballantines kendte serier, relativ kortfattet og letlæst og en udmærket introduktion til det komplekse forløb helt fra den Fransk-tyske krig i 1870-71, over 1. Verdenskrig og Mellemkrigsårene og hele Frankrigs politiske og militære historie under den 3. Republik, som i høj grad hører med til baggrunden for forståelsen af det totale kollaps og sammenbrud i juni 1940. Bogen er rigt illustreret, sort/hvide fotos.

Book Description
The author has succeeded in her chief aim in writing this book to introduce a compact and accessible account of EU intellectual property law. . . this book is a useful background and excellent starting point for understanding EU intellectual property law. Jamil Ammar, European Intellectual Property Review This book s innovative contribution is to view EU IP law as a subject in its own right, not just an extra to accounts of national law. The very up-to-date coverage strikes an excellent balance between detail and overview, while Dr Seville also discusses thoughtfully the wider international frameworks, policy issues and debates in which development of EU IP law is enmeshed. Dr Seville fully deserves the gratitude of IP lawyers and students for this outstandingly helpful study. Hector Macqueen, Edinburgh Law School, UK The book is as timely as it is well-written and thorough. The contributions of the EU to most aspects of intellectual property law are increasingly dominant. This treatment places them apart from the national laws of member states, thus emphasising the common core that now they provide. Many will want to study this presentation. William R. Cornish, University of Cambridge, UK Intellectual property (IP) is a crucial contributor to economic growth and competitiveness within the EU. This book offers a compact and accessible account of EU intellectual property law and policy, covering copyright, patents, designs, trademarks and the enforcement of rights. The author also addresses aspects of the free movement of goods and services, competition law, customs measures and anti-counterfeiting efforts. Setting EU intellectual property law in its wider international context, this work reveals the framework within which the national IP laws of member states operate. The book seeks to highlight the most important policy issues and arguments of relevance to the EU, both within the Union, and in its relations with the rest of the world. With its detailed references, cross-referencing and suggestions for further readings, EU Intellectual Property Law and Policy is essential reading for postgraduate students and academic lawyers in IP and EU law. Practitioners seeking a broad account of the area will also appreciate this important contribution.

Book Description
A lively portrait of mid-twentieth-century American book publishing—“A wonderful book, filled with anecdotal treasures” (The New York Times). According to Al Silverman, former publisher of Viking Press and president of the Book-of-the-Month Club, the golden age of book publishing began after World War II and lasted into the early 1980s. In this entertaining and affectionate industry biography, Silverman captures the passionate spirit of legendary houses such as Knopf; Farrar, Straus and Giroux; Grove Press; and Harper & Row, and profiles larger-than-life executives and editors, including Alfred and Blanche Knopf, Bennett Cerf, Roger Straus, Seymour Lawrence, and Cass Canfield. More than one hundred and twenty publishing insiders share their behind-the-scenes stories about how some of the most famous books in American literary history—from The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich to The Silence of the Lambs—came into being and why they’re still being read today. A joyful tribute to the hard work and boundless energy of professionals who dedicate their careers to getting great books in front of enthusiastic readers, The Time of Their Lives will delight bibliophiles and anyone interested in this important and ever-evolving industry.
