25 Doctrines of Law You Should Know - PDF
25 Doctrines of Law You Should Know - PDF
نویسندگان: Philip Chase Tobin خلاصه: I'll sue you!) In this litigious society, everyone needs to know a few basics to avoid being snowed, cowed and generally abused. Even those who can afford to hire lawyers need to know what they are up to. In a non-jargon format, this book explains 25 doctrines of law that are most important for Americans on a day-to-day basis. When a conflict arises, what are the main doctrines of law that give one side an advantage? What do they mean, and how do they apply? When you can see through the jargon, the intimidation factor loses its power and you can concentrate on real issues and use these tools to take care of yourself. Some of America's doctrines go back to the 17th-century English Bench and have had a lasting impact on our legal system. Other doctrines are of more recent vintage but have had an equally profound influence. The author has researched 1000 legal cases and identified 326 different doctrines of law; of those, he has selected 25 doctrines that average Americans are most likely to encounter in everyday activities. In these pages he reviews actual cases to show how the doctrines apply in real-life scenarios and relates what happened in court. These examples and explanations provide handy background reading for fans of court-room dramas and, since any one of us may end up in court these days, important general education for every adult in the United States. The 25 doctrines discussed are: 1. Res Ipsa Loquitur 2. Promissory Estoppel 3. Respondeat Superior 4. Doctrine of Sudden Danger 5. Rescue Doctrine 6. Doctrine of Comparative Negligence 7. Doctrine of Unjust Enrichment 8. Doctrine of Unclean Hands 9. Doctrine of Unconscionability 10. Fruit of the Poisonous Tree Doctrine 11. Attractive Nuisance Doctrine 12. Doctrine of Mitigated Damages 13. Quantum Meruit Doctrine 14. Doctrine of Sovereign Immunity 15. Doctrine of Absolute Immunity 16. Doctrine of Qualified Immunity 17. Last Clear Chance Doctrine 18. Open and Obvious Danger Doctrine 19. Assumption of Risk Doctrine 20. Public Duty Doctrine 21. Statute of Limitations 22. Equitable Estoppel 23. Res Judicata 24.Collateral Estoppel 25. Stare Decisis As an accessible point of introduction for those interested in the US legal system, this book is suitable as a popular reference work for public libraries, auxiliary reading for business-school courses, a starting place for anyone caught in a legal conflict, and handy background reading for fans of court-room drama novels and TV. The doctrines of law have never been addressed in book form before. In fact, surprisingly little is on the market that would make even some basic principles of American law accessible to the public.
Binge: What Your College Student Won't Tell You - PDF
Binge: What Your College Student Won't Tell You - PDF
نویسندگان: Barrett Seaman خلاصه: In Binge , Barrett Seaman reveals what every parent, student, and educator needs to know about the college experience. Seaman spent time with students at twelve highly regarded and diverse colleges and universities across North AmericaВ­. During his two years of research, he immersed himself in the lives of the students, often living in their dorms, dining with them, speaking with them on their own terms, and listening to them express their thoughts and feelings. Portraying a campus culture in which today’s best and brightest students grapple with far more than academic challenges, Binge conveys the unprecedented stresses on campus today. While sharing revealing interviews and the often dramatic stories, Seaman explores the complexities of romantic relationships and sexual relations, alcohol and drug use, anxiety and depression, class and racial boundaries, and more. Despite the disturbing trends, Seaman finds reasons for optimism and offers provocative and well-informed suggestions for improving the undergraduate experience. Sometimes alarming, always fascinating, and ultimately hopeful, Binge is an extraordinary investigative work that reveals the realities of higher education today.

So, You Wish to Learn All About Economics?: A Text on Elementary Mathematical Economics - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Lyndon H. Larouche خلاصه: LaRouche was right! LaRouche was right! LaRouche was right! Are people finally going to admit the truth about this man? He forcasted (using his own LaRouch/Riemann method) that the entire world economy would collapse unless we created a new financial system. He started saying this in 1971! Well, here we are... All of the so-called experts and economists, including that idiot - Allen Greenspan were wrong and LaRouche was right. Instead of being open-minded, most Americans went along - like stupid sheep - and followed what the "experts" in the media were telling us about economics. Many people laughed and ridiculed LaRouche and said: "Ha-ha, LaRouche is a nut. America is the riches country on earth! Our economy is not collapsing." So my question is: are the anti-LaRouche fanatics going to give-up, swallow thier pride, and admit that they were completly wrong and LaRouche was completly right? O.K. Americans: Stop being stupid. Turn off your reality T.V. show and go to www.larouchepac.com and learn something for a change; It's a matter of life-or-death.
