Описание: During World War II, the British formed a secret division, the 'SOE' or Special Operations Executive, in order to support resistance organisations in occupied Europe. It also engaged in 'targeted killing' - the assassination of enemy political and military leaders. The unit is famous for equipping its agents with tools for use behind enemy lines, such as folding motorbikes, miniature submarines and suicide pills disguised as coat buttons. But its activities are now also gaining attention as a forerunner to today's 'extra-legal' killings of wartime enemies in foreign territory, for example through the use of unmanned drones. Adam Leong's work evaluates the effectiveness of political assassination in wartime using four examples: Heydrich's assassination in Prague (Operation Anthropoid); the daring kidnap of Major General Kreipe in Crete by Patrick Leigh Fermor; the failed attempt to assassinate Rommel, known as Operation Flipper; and the American assassination of General Yamamoto.

Описание: Excerpt from Medical Responsibility and Malpractice: An Address Delivered at Albany Before the Medical Society of the State of New York, at Its Sixty-Sixth Annual Meeting, February 7, 1872 In all the ordinary business operations of life, such as buying and selling, the arts and manufactures, and the conveyance of property, the legal responsibility of persons engaged in these acts appears to be settled and understood, under the form of special contracts and engagements, influenced and governed by the usage and customs of society. The physician and his patient, as well as the lawyer and his client, enter into obligations, in one sense precisely the same as those that regulate the commercial relations of business men. In another sense the obligation is so entirely unlike, that professional skill and knowledge, in being brought in juxtaposition with petroleum, cattle and salt, experience such a shock as to be driven from seeking to define the distinctive place of legitimate science under the order and direction of legal investigation on one hand, or of elaiming exalted position because of confessed superiority on the other.
