An informative no-nonsense guide to health and safety. Health and safety is a very dry arduous subject. Let us be totally honest! Everyone has an opinion on it, and it’s mostly bad. The whole perceived premise around health and safety is that it’s often “over the top”, it’s the “nanny state”, it’s overbearing, and “The Man” is giving us extra things to do. In reality it’s there to keep us all safe and healthy.

A diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or dementia is devastating. Not only is it devastating for the person who has the disease, it is also devastating for the caregiver. Caregivers carry emotional, financial, and legal burdens. The Alzheimer's Roadmap series was designed by a caregiver for caregivers. Each book provides checklists on a given topic to help caregivers know what they need to do as they travel through their difficult journey.

Creatocracy takes everything you thought you knew about pilgrims and their plainly puritanical sensibilities, flips it on its head, throws glitter on it, sets it to a flashy pop score, then throws it a big coming out party. In a movie version of this American origin story, Baz Luhrmann would be calling all the shots. Elizabeth Wurtzel has masterfully written a crash course in American history and the arts, wise and witty, full of humor and insight. This is pop patriotism in book form.

‘Het was een bekend geintje in misdaadkringen. Wie wat betekende in de Nederlandse onderwereld liep met het telefoonnummer van advocaat Piet Doedens op zak. Het nummer was makkelijk te onthouden. Twee keer 310. In het Wetboek van Strafrecht staat artikel 310 voor diefstal. Twee keer diefstal dus.’ Je hebt advocaten, topadvocaten en je hebt Piet Doedens. Mr. Piet Herman Doedens (Utrecht 1942), strafpleiter met gedwongen rust als gevolg van een hersenbloeding, was volgens veel van zijn confrères in zijn hoogtijdagen de beste in zijn vak..

"Copaganda" is a special kind of propaganda employed by police, prosecutors, and news media. It stokes fear of police-recorded crime and distorts society’s responses to it. As the United States incarcerates five times more people per capita than it did in 1970—despite record low crime rates—a sprawling and profitable punishment bureaucracy spends a lot of time and money to manipulate what we think that bureaucracy does and why.

Can the president launch a nuclear attack without congressional approval? Is it ever a crime to criticize the president? Can states legally resist a president's executive order? Corey Brettschneider takes us on a deep dive into the US Constitution to answer questions that, in our tumultuous era, Americans are asking more than ever before. From the document itself and from history's pivotal court cases, we learn why certain powers were granted to the presidency, how the Bill of Rights limits those powers, and what "we the people" can do.

In Tech Monopoly, Herbert Hovenkamp explores competition problems in a wide range of high-tech firms—from those that sell purely digital products, such as video streaming, search, software, or email services, to others that sell more traditional "tactile" products, such as hardware, clothing, groceries, or rides. He offers a realistic look at the powers and limitations of antitrust law in tech markets with an assessment that is as comprehensive as it is accessible.

In The Lawyer Bubble, Steven J. Harper reveals how a culture of short-term thinking has blinded some of the nation’s finest minds to the long-run implications of their actions. Law school deans have ceded independent judgment in the quest to maximize immediate results. Senior partners in the nation’s large law firms have focused on current profits and individual wealth at great cost to their institutions. Yet, wiser decisions can take the profession to a better place.

El capitalismo está codificado por abogados. Esta es la conclusión a la que ha llegado la jurista Katharina Pistor. El empresario multimillonario y la gran fábrica como imagen del capitalismo es posible que esté desfasada. Hoy en día la producción industrial ha perdido su hegemonía frente al sector financiero, un sector que conoce bien las reglas del juego, porque muchas de ellas las ha fomentado.

En France, on tue tous les jours, toutes les heures. Les faits divers envahissent les journaux, les séries télévisées de médecine légale prolifèrent, les histoires criminelles, réelles ou fictives, exercent sur le public une fascination sans borne.

Égorgés, poignardés, étranglés, pendus, tués par balle, toutes les victimes finissent par parler.
