Описание: Law students, law professors, and lawyers frequently refer to the process of "thinking like a lawyer," but attempts to analyze in any systematic way what is meant by that phrase are rare. In his classic book, Kenneth J. Vandevelde defines this elusive phrase and identifies the techniques involved in thinking like a lawyer. Unlike most legal writings, which are plagued by difficult, virtually incomprehensible language, this book is accessible and clearly written and will help students, professionals, and general readers gain important insight into this well-developed and valuable way of thinking.
Updated for a new generation of lawyers, the second edition features a new chapter on contemporary perspectives on legal reasoning. A useful new appendix serves as a survival guide for current and prospective law students and describes how to apply the techniques in the book to excel in law school.

Описание: University can be a psychologically distressing place for students. Empirical studies in Australia and the USA highlight that a large number of law students suffer from psychological distress, when compared to students from other disciplines and members of the general population. This book explores the significant role that legal education can play in the promotion of mental health and well-being in law students, and consequently in the profession. The volume considers the ways in which the problems of psychological distress amongst law students are connected to the way law and legal culture are taught, and articulates curricula and extra-curricula strategies for promoting wellbeing for law students. With contributions from legal academics, legal practitioners and psychologists, the authors discuss the possible causes of psychological distress in the legal community, and potential interventions that may increase psychological well-being. This important book will be of interest to legal academics, law students, members of the legal profession, post-graduate researchers as well as non-law researchers interested in this area.

The Story of the Pivotal Figure behind Sir Walter Scott's Later Masterpieces
In the Warmth of the Limelight relies on primary materials from archival and secondary sources to uncover the impact of the John Gibson-Sir Walter Scott relationship during Scott's final decade. Scott was at the peak of his career as an internationally acclaimed poet/author/celebrity when Gibson becomes his lawyer. Scott is then faced with a devastating financial catastrophe followed by personal and family tragedies and enlists Gibson to help him respond. Gibson's 1871 Reminiscences of Sir Walter Scott yields glimpses of their partnership that occurred thereafter. They decide Scott will recover entirely from his misfortunes with honor via a trust... and by writing Limelight strives to complete their story.
A prologue tells how Gibson-Scott correspondence, long private for over 100 years after Scott's death, inspired the project. Gibson and Scott's backgrounds are then examined revealing parallels in their experiences that lead to their subsequent association. Scott's role in enlisting Gibson as lawyer for himself and guardians of the fifth Duke of Buccleuch is brought to light for the first time. Gibson's personal and professional functions expand as Scott's heroic response to adversity then unfolds. Gibson encounters added complexities in overseeing Scott's partner in a printing business, James Ballantyne, and when Robert Cadell enters as Scott's final publisher. As their personal story develops, an operative perspective of navigating then-new 19th century legal obstacles regarding intellectual property, trusts and others, as well as the fates of Scott, Gibson and the Trust are presented in significant detail.
The concluding portion of Limelight involves the period after Scott's death and the remainder of Gibson's almost fifty-five year career in service to the fifth Duke of Buccleuch. Early Insight is provided into the evolution of a large Scottish law firm that continues today. The depth and breadth of Gibson's involvement in the Buccleuch affairs, including their service to Queen Victoria and her Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel's Privy Council, the Duke's vast entrepreneurial business affairs important for Scotland's growth such as the development of access to steam-powered transportation associated with the Granton Harbor project, etc., are highlighted.
Limelight provides a view of Scott's final decade not comprehensively represented in published literature - that of lawyer John Gibson, WS, as the person closest to his affairs during that time. The fascinating personal story presents real events unfolding and suspenseful like a work of fiction. What emerges is a complex and moving portrait of Gibson as a nineteenth century middle-class legal professional serving two of the most noted Scots of their day to meet diverse historic challenges. It is intended to have broad readership appeal from those curious about Sir Walter Scott, British, literary or legal history to readers with academic interest and has messages that continue to resonate today.
The Author A descendant of John Gibson, Robert Gibson Alloo is a graduate of University of California, Berkeley, St. Louis University School of Medicine and member of The American College of Physicians. Proud of his Scottish heritage and a passionate scholar of British history, Alloo lives in California.

In his memoir, Alvin Ziontz reflects on his more than thirty years representing Indian tribes, from a time when Indian law was little known through landmark battles that upheld tribal sovereignty. He discusses the growth and maturation of tribal government and the underlying tensions between Indian society and the non-Indian world. A Lawyer in Indian Country presents vignettes of reservation life and recounts some of the memorable legal cases that illustrate the challenges faced by individual Indians and tribes.
As the senior attorney arguing U.S. v. Washington, Ziontz was a party to the historic 1974 Boldt decision that affirmed the Pacific Northwest tribes' treaty fishing rights, with ramifications for tribal rights nationwide. His work took him to reservations in Montana, Wyoming, and Minnesota, as well as Washington and Alaska, and he describes not only the work of a tribal attorney but also his personal entry into the life of Indian country.
Ziontz continued to fight for tribal rights into the late 1990s, as the Makah tribe of Washington sought to resume its traditional whale hunts. Throughout his book, Ziontz traces his own path through this public history - one man's pursuit of a life built around the principles of integrity and justice.
