The proof
Schauer F.,IN THE AGE OF FAKE NEWS, trust and truth are hard to come by. Blatantly and shamelessly, pub- lic figures deceive us by abusing what sounds like ev- idence. Preeminent legal theorist Frederick Schauer proposes correctives, drawing on centuries of inquiry into the nature of evidence. Evidence is the basis of how we know what we think we know, but evidence is no simple thing. Ev- idence that counts in, say, the policymaking context is different from evidence that stands up in court. Law, science, historical scholarship, public and private decision making-all rely on different standards of evidence. Exploring diverse terrain including vaccine and food safety, election-fraud claims, the January 2021 events at the US Capitol, the reliability of ex- perts and eyewitnesses, climate science, art authen- tication, and even astrology, The Proof develops fresh insights into the challenge of reaching the truth.

Administrative law and Process
Levin R.M,We join in dedicating this edition to the late Professor Ernest Gellhorn, the author of the first edition of Administrative Law and Process in a Nutshell and co-author of editions 2 through 5, before his premature death in 2005. Not surprisingly, much of the content of this edition can be traced to Ernie's substantive acumen and his habitual clarity of expression.

Administrative law
Funk F,If you are like us when we were law students, you enrolled in a course on administrative law without knowing exactly what the course would be about or understanding what an administrative agency is. The mysteriousness is understandable. Administrative law is like the air we breathe: invisible yet pervasive. Administrative agencies affect so many areas of our lives that we take them for granted. They are part of the atmosphere of modern life, and, like the physical atmosphere, they are necessary (at least in some form) to sustain modern life, but they get little attention from most people. Nonetheless, law students need to learn about them because most lawyers must deal with them.

An Introduction to the Sociology of Law
Milovanovic Dragan,The third edition of Sociology of Law has been updated. It includes more illustrative examples and some new sections. I have benefited greatly from many critical discussions about the book with numerous friends since the last edition. Bruce Arrigo and Stuart Henry have been especially supportive of this undertaking in their continuous critical dialogues. I have also bene- fited from the continuous input from students who have used this book for their course. The book is still meant to be read sequentially. The earlier chapters lay the groundwork for understanding in the later chapters. This book offers a basic understanding of key concepts in the sociology of law. It does not conduct an exhaustive review of the literature, particularly his- torical developments traced back to the dawn of civilization. It does not do systematic critiques of the various perspectives.

Administrative law
Strauss P,This is primarily a book about Administrative Law the body of general rules and principles governing federal administrative agencies and their connections to the President, the Congress, and the Courts. For some users, it may also serve as an introduction to Congress, the legislative process, and statutory interpretation. These are vital subjects for any lawyer to consider; yet public law today largely emerges from the work of the administrative state, and it is that fact that dominantly informs this book's pages.

Comparative Constitutional law
Tushnet M,The aims of the series are two-fold: to pinpoint essential principles of a particular field, and to offer insights that stimulate critical thinking.

Importantly, they also develop well-informed, nuanced critiques of the field that will challenge and extend the understanding of advanced students, scholars and policy-makers.

A history of the global stock market
Mark Smith B,IN MAY 2000, shortly after what would prove to be the top of the great bull market of the 1990s, a conversation between Federal Re- serve Board chairman Alan Greenspan and an aide was reported in the Wall Street Journal. The subject was Greenspan's seeming preoc- cupation with the stock market and the impact the market had on Federal Reserve policy decisions. "I could readily stop talking about the stock market," Greenspan admitted to his aide. "But if I do, I will not be explaining how the process is working... There is no way to understand what is going on in this economy without reference to [stock] prices."

E-Commerce law
Tom James JD,E-commerce is a shorthand expression for electronic commerce. It encompasses any sale, license, lease, rental or other transfer of a product, service or property interest, whether tangible or intangible, that is conducted, advertised or facilitated using an online service. It also refers to the conduct of some or all of a business's operations online. It is not a discrete, compartmentalized field of study like contract, tort, intellectual property, business, or constitutional law. It is all of those things-and more. Unfortunately, a book of this size cannot provide in-depth coverage of every aspect of every possible legal topic a business may encounter when it engages in e- commerce. Nor can it take the place of an attorney. What it can and does provide is a means for identifying and understanding the issues that may arise in the course of doing business online.
