If learning legal terminology were as simple as memorizing words, all you would need is a dictionary. But, merely memorizing definitions takes inordinate time, hard work, and in the end, still teaches you little about comprehending and retaining this new language. If you understand the nature of the legal terms and how they equate to ordinary legal situations, you will learn the terminology in a faster and more engaging way, and most importantly retain that knowledge far longer. Such learning requires the following strategies: charts comparing words whenever two terms have confusing similarities, organizing words under common legal concepts, and including interesting supplementary material (such as how attorneys evaluate an automobile case to determine how much it is worth, or who gets to keep the wedding ring if the marriage is called off). Cumulatively these learning strategies make legal terminology come alive. The purpose of learning legal terms is not for you to memorize the words

Strange Career offers a clear and illuminating analysis of the history of Jim Crow laws and American race relations. This book presented evidence that segregation in the South dated only to the 1880s. It's publication in 1955, a year after the Supreme Court ordered schools be desegregated, helped counter arguments that the ruling would destoy a centuries-old way of life. The commemorative edition includes a special afterword by William S. McFeely, former Woodward student and winner of both the 1982 Pulitzer Prize and 1992 Lincoln Prize. As William McFeely describes in the new afterword, 'the slim volume's social consequence far outstripped its importance to academia. The book became part of a revolution...The Civil Rights Movement had changed Woodward's South and his slim, quietly insistent book...had contributed to that change.' Product details Format

A vertical navigation (VNAV) outer-loop control system was developed to capture and track the vertical path segments of energy-efficient trajectories that are being developed for high-density operations in the evolving Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). The VNAV control system has a speed-on-elevator control mode to pitch the aircraft for tracking a calibrated airspeed (CAS) or Mach number profile and a path control mode for tracking the VNAV altitude profile. Mode control logic was developed for engagement of either the speed or path control modes. The control system will level the aircraft to prevent it from flying through a constraint altitude. A stability analysis was performed that showed that the gain and phase margins of the VNAV control system significantly exceeded the design gain and phase margins. The system performance was assessed using a six-deg-of-freedom non-linear transport aircraft simulation and the performance is illustrated with time-history plots

Page, Plant, and Jones hand-selected the songs for the unprecedented, career-spanning Mothership. Now, Alfred Music is proud to present this 200-page sheet music collection of highly accurate piano arrangements. Prior to this songbook, many piano/vocal arrangements of Led Zeppelin songs were published in the "old-style," which means the sheet music didn't necessarily match the epic recordings that made the songs famous. For this collection, each recording was revisited for transcription, resulting in the finest Led Zeppelin piano/vocal songbook ever published! This is a must-own book for pianists, keyboardists, and fans in general. Basic guitar chord frames are included, and there's also an authentic guitar TAB version available.

'An eloquent, forensic examination of resurgent English nationalism as the force that has driven Brexit and may now break up the United Kingdom' Jonathan CoeIn the past, it was possible to live with delightful confusion: one could be English or British, Scottish or Irish, and a citizen/subject of the United Kingdom (or Great Britain). For years that state has been what Gavin Esler calls a 'secret federation', but without the explicit federal arrangements that allow Germany or the USA to survive. Now the archaic state, which doesn't have a written constitution, is coming under terrible strain. The English revolt against Europe is also a revolt against the awkward squads of the Scottish and Irish, and most English conservatives would be happy to get rid of Northern Ireland and Scotland as the price of getting Brexit done. The pressures to declare Scottish independence and to push for a border poll that would unite Ireland may become irresistible. Can England and Wales

Esta enciclopedia magistral sobre la mitología antigua, los rituales, el simbolismo y los misterios arcanos de todos los tiempos —un clásico de la literatura mundial desde 1928 y, probablemente, el compendio de ciencia oculta más completo jamás escrito—, se pone por primera vez al alcance del lector español en una magnífica traducción. Como ningún otro libro del siglo xx, Las enseñanzas secretas de todos los tiempos es un códice legendario sobre las antiguas tradiciones ocultas y esotéricas del mundo. Los centenares de temas que trata alumbran con una luz poco común algunos de los aspectos más fascinantes y mejor guardados de los mitos, las religiones y las filosofías que resuenan desde la antigüedad hasta el presente. Y es que aunque se hayan escrito numerosos volúmenes sobre estas cuestiones, las verdades eternas de la vida, al igual que muchos de los más grandes pensadores, han quedado envueltos en tinieblas. Esta obra pretende ser digno de aquellos sabios y sus enseñanzas. Con más
