Lincoln the Lawyer

Lincoln the Lawyer

Brian R. Dirck

University of Illinois Press
2008
nidottu
This fascinating history explores Abraham Lincoln's legal career, investigating the origins of his desire to practice law, his legal education, his partnerships with John Stuart, Stephen Logan, and William Herndon, and the maturation of his far-flung practice in the 1840s and 1850s. Brian Dirck also examines Lincoln's clientele, how he charged his clients, and how he addressed judge and jury, as well as his views on legal ethics and the supposition that he never defended a client he knew to be guilty.
Wittgenstein, Frazer and Religion

Wittgenstein, Frazer and Religion

Brian R. Clack

Palgrave Macmillan
1999
sidottu
Wittgenstein, Frazer and Religion expounds and analyses the argument of Wittgenstein's Remarks on Frazer's Golden Bough . It details the reasons for Wittgenstein's rejection of the intellectualist theory of religion, and suggests a new interpretation of his rival view of ritual. Denying that Wittgenstein's account is straightforwardly expressivist, the author builds his own interpretation on Wittgenstein's claim that magic is akin to metaphysics. In the course of the book, the author considers such matters as expressivism, 'perspicuous representation', the nature of human sacrifice, and Wittgenstein's cultural pessimism.

What should the average person know about science? Because science is so central to life in the 21st century, science educators and other leaders of the scientific community believe that it is essential that everyone understand the basic concepts of the most vital and far-reaching disciplines. Biotechnology 101 does exactly that. This accessible volume provides readers - whether students new to the field or just interested members of the lay public - with the essential ideas of biotechnology using a minimum of jargon and mathematics. Concepts are introduced in a progressive order so that more complicated ideas build on simpler ones, and each is discussed in small, bite-sized segments so that they can be more easily understood.This short volume will enable students and lay people to understand the basics of one of the most important scientific fields of endeavor for the future.

Mathematics for Physicists is a relatively short volume covering all the essential mathematics needed for a typical first degree in physics, from a starting point that is compatible with modern school mathematics syllabuses. Early chapters deliberately overlap with senior school mathematics, to a degree that will depend on the background of the individual reader, who may quickly skip over those topics with which he or she is already familiar. The rest of the book covers the mathematics that is usually compulsory for all students in their first two years of a typical university physics degree, plus a little more. There are worked examples throughout the text, and chapter-end problem sets.Mathematics for Physicists features: Interfaces with modern school mathematics syllabusesAll topics usually taught in the first two years of a physics degreeWorked examples throughoutProblems in every chapter, with answers to selected questions at the end of the book and full solutions on a website This text will be an excellent resource for undergraduate students in physics and a quick reference guide for more advanced students, as well as being appropriate for students in other physical sciences, such as astronomy, chemistry and earth sciences.

Politics and Trade in Mexico 1750–1821

Politics and Trade in Mexico 1750–1821

Brian R. Hamnett

Cambridge University Press
2009
pokkari
The province of Oaxaca in southern Mexico was one of the main sources of Spanish wealth during the colonial period. The largely indigenous population supplied dyes and cotton for the Spanish merchants trading both with Spain and within Mexico itself. Much of the trade was conducted in violation of the Laws of the Indies and the royal decrees. The present study traces the struggles of the Spanish Metropolitan Government and the local episcopal authorities in Oaxaca to secure observation of the law. The effects of the eighteenth-century Bourbon reforms and of the Mexican Independence movement of 1810–21 are discussed. Brian Hamnett has based his study on archival sources in Seville and Mexico and provides statistical information in both the text and appendices. In addition the author has supplied detailed information concerning individuals - administrators, merchants, landowners, clerics - involved in politics and commerce.
Roots of Insurgency

Roots of Insurgency

Brian R. Hamnett

Cambridge University Press
2002
pokkari
Studies in Spanish American regional history have, as yet, made little attempt to incorporate the struggles for independence within the context of provincial society and politics viewed over the broader period that spans the late colonial and early national experience of Latin America. This book attempts a new perspective: it emphasises the provincial milieu and popular participation in its varied forms, often ambiguous and contradictory. The central aim is to examine social conflicts, chiefly in the Mexican provinces of Puebla, Guadalajara, Michoacán, and Guanajuato from the middle of the eighteenth century, and to assess their relationship to the widespread insurgency of the second decade of the nineteenth century.

When Jane Meadows is jilted on her wedding day, watching the love of her life, Bobby Logan, speed away on his motorcycle to pursue a musical career in New York City, she refuses her mother's good advice, who tells her to let him be. Instead, she enlists Joann Dertz, a.k.a Jo Dert, her pistol-packing best friend from Moundsville, to join her on a manhunt to Manhattan Isle.They weren't alone on the chase. Logan's notorious uncle, Earnest Kitchi, a Native American video producer with his own tribal motivations for the wedding, assembles a posse to bring him back to West Virginia, dead or alive.Jane's widowed mother, Claire, afraid of losing her only daughter and grandchild, also joins the road trip with the irrepressible Right Reverend Pete.The well-armed Mountaineers break badly into the Big Apple, encountering explosive detours, yet their insane sideshows turn them into media darlings among the curiously entertained New Yorkers.But, with renewed motivation and the feds on their tails, Jane and her troupe track down Logan in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania, where he's performing at a music festival that is pointedly in the path of one of the great East Coast floods of 2011, spawned by Hurricane Irene.Jane and Jo find redemption on a wild riverboat ride during the flood in this tale of rectification, where valor is not limited to one gender, creed, or race.
