Chip war
Miller Ch.,One of the most important books I've read in years-engrossing, beau- tifully written. Miller shows that, for all its manifest flaws and failures, the American capitalist system has repeatedly outperformed other systems and in the process has done much to bolster the security of democracy." -Robert Kagan, senior fellow, The Brookings Institution, columnist for The Washington Post, and author of The Jungle Grows Back: America and Our Imperiled World "If you care about technology, or America's future prosperity, or its continuing security, this is a book you have to read." -Lawrence H. Summers, 71st U.S. Secretary of the Treasury and Charles W. Eliot University Professor at Harvard University "Outstanding. Miller's history of the chip covers all angles: technolog- The go-to reference on one ical, financial, and especially political. of the most important industries today." -Dan Wang, technology analyst at Gavekal Dragonomics "The battle for supremacy in semiconductors is one of the most impor- tant stories in geopolitics, national security, and economic prosperity. But it's also been one of the least well understood. Thankfully, we now have Chip War to give us a clear view and sharp read on this essential subject."

The model law approach to international commercial arbitration
Campbell M.,Taking the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration as its basis, this concise and accessible book presents a cutting-edge account of the international arbitral process. Applying a chronological approach, the book will enable readers to gain an understanding of the arbitral process from start to finish. Chapters explore key topics including the general structure of international commercial arbitration, the Model Law, arbitration agreements, the arbitral tribunal, the conduct of arbitral proceedings, and challenges to and enforcement of arbitral awards. The book highlights key underlying principles in international arbitration such as party autonomy, the finality of awards and the need to limit court intervention. It also examines the harmonising aim of the Model Law, demonstrating how it acts as a blueprint for legislation on international commercial arbitration, and ties in relevant case law to give a holistic picture of international commercial arbitration in action. This book will prove indispensable to academics and students of international commercial law, arbitration and dispute resolution, who are seeking clarity on the legal framework governing the arbitral process. Legal practitioners will similarly benefit from this clear and concise guide to the application of the Model Law.

Criminal law
Weaver R.L.,This interactive criminal law casebook continues the tradition of our prior criminal law casebook (which went through four editions), but enhanced that tradition by moving to an interactive format. As with the prior books, our primary goal is to create a "teacher's book"-a book that contains thought provoking problems (referred to as "hypos" in the Interactive Casebook Series) designed to stimulate thought and produce interesting classroom discussion. The hypos are woven throughout the chapters and are designed to help students learn doctrine, illuminate trends in the law, and ultimately produce better learning. A secondary goal was to include a focus on teaching "skills." Some of the problems place students in practical situations that they are likely to encounter in practice, and therefore encourage students to think about how they might handle those situations in real-life.

Advanced macroeconomics
Romer D.,An Introduction to the Study of Macroeconomics at an Advanced Level The fourth edition of Romer's Advanced Macroeconomics presents the major theories concerning the central questions of macroeconomics. In areas ranging from economic growth and short-run fluctuations to the natural rate of unemployment and fiscal policy, formal models are used to present and analyze key ideas and issues. The theoretical analysis is supplemented by examples of relevant empirical work, illustrating the ways that theories can be applied and tested. The book has been revised more extensively than ever before. There are changes throughout to incorporate new research, eliminate inessential material, and further improve the presentation Key revisions include: There are now separate chapters on endogenous growth (Chapter 3) and cross-country income differences (Chapter 4). Chapter 3 includes a careful presentation of Paul Romer's now-classic model of endogenous technological change, and Chapter 4 takes the reader to the frontiers of empirical research on the underlying sources of the enormous differences in standards of living among countries Chapters 6 and 7 on short-run fluctuations when prices are not fully flexible have been completely redone. The analysis is grounded in microeconomic foundations from the outset. The chapters build from simple models to the canonical three-equation new Keynesian model (the new Keynesian IS curve, the new Keynesian Phillips curve, and an interest rate rule) and the ingredients of modern dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium models of fluctuations. The revisions to Chapters 6 and 7 carry over to the analysis of monetary policy in Chapter 11. This chapter has been entirely reorganized and includes a careful treatment of optimal policy in forward-looking models. An epilogue describes some of the main issues that the financial and macroeconomic crisis that began in 2008 raises for macroeconomics and discusses how the crisis may change the field.

Criminal law
Lafave W.,The present volume is an updated version of the hornbook most recently published in its Sixth Edition under the authorship of the legendary Wayne R. LaFave. The Sixth Edition, like its predecessors, included the work not only of LaFave but also of Professor Austin W. Scott, Jr., who collaborated with Professor LaFave on the first edition of this hornbook. In this Seventh Edition, I have endeavored to take into account all developments in the field of criminal law as of January 2023. Some of the recent changes are relatively minor, while others, such as California's repeal of the felony murder rule, are comparatively significant. But in either case, the DNA of this new volume remains essentially unaltered: the brilliant vision executed primarily by Professor LaFave.

Bently L.,Advocating for more standardised data governance practices and promoting the digital economy, Data Governance in Al, FinTech and LegalTech investigates the rationale, legal base and tools of data governance in the financial sector. This timely book makes a significant contribution to the debate around how rapidly-evolving digital finance practices should be regulated. Contributions from leading researchers examine a range of financial services, offering a comprehensive assessment of the available tools for constructing multi-layered matrix systems for data governance in the financial services sector. Chapters explore data governance in the cryptocurrency market, crypto-asset providers, legal services for mergers and acquisitions, consumer insurance, consumer finance, digital platform services, securities exchanges and the green bond market. The book serves to define the legal contours of data governance, taking account of the influence of shifting business models, the views of multiple stakeholders and emerging issues surrounding data protection, privacy and cybersecurity. This is a crucial read for scholars of law and finance who are researching data regulation, data governance and financial market law. Exploring both the opportunities and risks arising from the digital transformation of financial markets, it will also be invaluable for practitioners and policy makers working in the financial sector, law, risk management and compliance.
