In volume one Beck treats feigned and disqualifying diseases impotence and sterility doubtful sex rape pregnancy delivery infanticide contributed by his brother Dr. John Beck legitimacy survivorship age and identity and mental alienation; volume two examines persons found dead wounds and poisons whether mineral vegetable or animal. At the beginning of the work is a useful bibliography of texts consulted by Beck. Indexed. unknown books

Lord Ellenborough says 'who has equaled Emerigon as a theoretical and practical writer on the Law of Insurance He has exhausted every topic so far as materials were within his reach; and upon all new questions his work for illustration and authorities and usages is still unrivalled.' Chancellor Kent has spoken with equal warmth and truthfulness of Emerigon for he remarks that his Essay on Maritime Loans 'very far surpasses all preceding works in the extent value and practical application of his principles. It is the most didactic learned and finished production extant on the subject. He professedly carried his researches into the antiquities of the maritime law and illustrated the ordinances by what he terms the jurisprudence of the tribunals; and he discusses all incidental questions so as to bring within the compass of his work a great portion of international and commercial law connected with the doctrines of Insurance. In the language of Lord Tenterden no subject in Emerigon is discussed without being exhausted and the eulogy is as just as it is splendid.'"-J. G. Marvin Legal Bibliography 1847 292.

It was one of the first treatises on political science and the first written in the United States.

As much a work of advocacy as it is of theory it urges the reader to consider the moral obligations that arise from his participation in government and other civil institutions.

Fyfe Thomas Alexander
Charles Dickens and the Law
2006. ISBN-13: 9781584776666; ISBN-10: 1584776668. Fyfe Thomas Alexander. Charles Dickens and the Law. Originally published: Edinburgh: William Hodge & Co. 1910. 79 pp. Reprinted 2006 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584776666; ISBN-10: 1584776668. Hardcover. New. $24.95 This essay praises Dickens's detailed knowledge of the law legal community and unfair features of the legal system of his day. "I have barely tapped the legal mine of interest in Dickens. I have but glanced at some of the more outstanding aspects of the subject and the more outstanding personalities. . Some of Dickens' lawyers are eccentric and some commonplace; some are dry-as-dust some very human; no two of them are alike and each is typical of a class to be found in the legal profession in the present day just as in the time of Dickens. That by his writings Dickens drew public attention to some of the cruel features of the law as it existed in his day especially as regards imprisonment for debt and that his writings were a powerful factor in removing or softening hard features of the judicial system there is no doubt. But there are anomalies and evils denounced in his books still unremedied. There is yet a wide field open to the Dickens student in the judicial aspect of Dickens' works and my aim has been accomplished if I have been able in some degree to flash a little light upon this undeveloped mine of interest and in some small measure to create as regards the attitude of Charles Dickens to the law a desire on the part of others to inquire further into a subject so teeming with interest" 78-79. unknown books

New. $49.95 Reprint of the first edition. This classic work by the important Austrian jurist is the fullest exposition of his enormously influential pure theory of law which includes a theory of the state. It also has an extensive appendix that discusses the pure theory in comparison with the law of nature positivism historical natural law metaphysical dualism and scientific-critical philosophy. "The scope of the work is truly universal. It never loses itself in vague generalities or in unconnected fragments of thought. On the contrary precision in the formulation of details and rigorous system are characteristic features of the exposition: only a mind fully concentrated upon that logical structure can possibly follow Kelsen's penetrating analysis. Such a mind will not shrink from the effort necessary for acquainting itself with.the pure theory of law in its more general aspects and will then pass over to the theory of the state which ends up with a carefully worked out theory of international law.": Julius Kraft American Journal of International Law 40 1946:496. Possibly the most influential jurisprudent of the twentieth century Hans Kelsen 1881-1973 was legal adviser to Austria's last emperor and its first republican government the founder and permanent advisor of the Supreme Constitutional Court of Austria and the author of Austria's Constitution which was enacted in 1920 abolished during the Anschluss and restored in 1945.

2005. ISBN-13: 9781584774501; ISBN-10: 1584774509. Brown William Garrott. The Life of Oliver Ellsworth. Originally published: New York: The Macmillan Company 1905. 369 pp. Frontispiece. Three plates.

As a member of the first United States Senate Ellsworth 1745-1807 supported Alexander Hamilton's policies and was the main author of the Judiciary Act of 1789. He became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court in 1796. During his brief tenure which ended in 1799 due to poor health Ellsworth worked to expand the authority of the federal courts and extend common law procedures in appeals to equity and admiralty cases. With limited success he tried to initiate the policy of the Court's handing down per curiam opinions for the entire court rather than seriatim opinions by individual justices. Originally published in 1905 Brown's biography remains the standard account of Ellsworth's life and work. unknown books
