Book excerpt: From the environmental activist, consumer advocate, and renowned crusader comes a riveting book that is "part memoir, part non-fiction report, and part call-to-action—a plea to readers to engage with the water crisis in America because no one else is going to do the work for you" (InStyle Magazine). Clean water is as basic to life on planet Earth as hydrogen or oxygen. In her long-awaited book—her first to reckon with the condition of water on our planet—Erin Brockovich shows us what’s at stake. She writes powerfully of the fraudulent science disguising our national water crisis: Cancer clusters are not being reported. People in Detroit and the state of New Jersey don’t have clean water. The drinking water for more than six million Americans contains unsafe levels of industrial chemicals linked to cancer and other health issues. The saga of PG&E continues to this day. Yet communities and people around the country are fighting to make an impact, and Brockovich tells us their stories. In Poughkeepsie, New York, a water operator responded to his customers’ concerns and changed his system to create some of the safest water in the country. Local moms in Hannibal, Missouri, became the first citizens in the nation to file an ordinance prohibiting the use of ammonia in their public drinking water. Like them, we can each protect our right to clean water by fighting for better enforcement of laws, new legislation, and stronger regulations.

With this approach, they drive each other. Covering the what, why, and how of running a client-centered practice, with examples from law firms leading this revolution as well as practical strategies for implementation, The Client-Centered Law Firm is a rallying call to unlock the enormous latent demand in the legal market by providing client-centered experiences, improving internal processes, and raising the bottom line.

Download or read book Principles of Evidence in International Criminal Justice written by Karim A. A. Khan and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles of Evidence in International Criminal Justice provides an overview of the procedure and practice concerning the admission and evaluation of evidence before the international criminal tribunals. The book is both descriptive and critical and its emphasis is on day-to-day practice, drawing on the experience of the Yugoslavia, Rwanda and Sierra Leone Tribunals. This book is an attempt to define and explain the core principles and rules that have developed at those ad hoc Tribunals; the rationale and origin of those rules; and to assess the suitability of those rules in the particular context of the International Criminal Court which is still at its early stages. The ICC differs in structure from the ad hoc Tribunals and approaches the legal issues it has to resolve differently from its predecessors. The ICC is however confronted with many of the same questions. The book examines the differences between the ad hoc Tribunals and the ICC and seeks to offer insights as to how and in which circumstances the principles established over years of practice at the ICTY, ICTR and SCSL may serve as guidance to the ICC practitioners of today and the future. The contributors represent a cross-section of the practicing international criminal bar, drawn from the ranks of the Bench, the Prosecution and the Defence and bringing with them different legal domestic cultures. Their mixed background underlines the recurring theme in this book which is the manner in which a legal culture has gradually taken shape in the international Tribunals, drawing on the various traditions and experiences of its participants.

Download or read book Hospitality Law written by Stephen C. Barth and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-04-17 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitality Law: Managing Legal Issues in the Hospitality Industry, Fifth Edition takes an applied approach to the study of hospitality law with its touchstone of compliance and prevention. The book is highly pedagogical and includes many interactive exercises and real world cases that help students focus on the practical application of hospitality laws and model their decision process to avoid liability. As a result, this book does look different than others on the market as the legal information contained is carefully selected to specifically correlate with helping students understand how to do the right thing, i.e., it is not a comprehensive book on the laws. Barth immediately helps readers learn about the legalities of situations and work through exercises – both individually and in groups -- to effectively apply them to hospitality management situations. Many instructors teach their course from a very applied perspective, which aligns with Barth’s approach.

Download or read book Chasing The Insights written by Vince Warnock and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-07 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without a doubt, the most common question I get asked by other digital marketers is "How the hell do we keep up"? Let's face it, technology and in particular digital marketing is moving so fast it almost seems impossible to be at the top of your game. Then, to add insult to injury, customer behaviour and expectations are also changing at pace. Simply put, in the world of digital marketing and internet marketing, it is getting harder and harder to win. But what if I told you there is a way for you to get ahead of the competition? What if I told you that bringing a simple tool into your digital marketing arsenal could create a way for you to get a steady stream of incremental gains in your search engine optimization, your social media marketing, your conversion rate optimization and even your content marketing efforts. Think of it as a way to get compound interest gains in all of your digital marketing channels. This tool will also give you a way for you to change your focus. A way for you to stop stressing about the wins and instead, to provide you with real insight into what works, what doesn't and how your customers think. The not so secret tool I am referencing is 'experimentation'. Most of us have a simplified version of it (such as A/B testing) already, but a true experimentation framework goes a lot deeper than just testing two different variables. It is a way for us to disrupt the market, our competitors and most importantly, disrupt ourselves. In this book, the simple goal is to give you three things: An easy to understand framework that you can implement. A guide to cultivating the mindset required to successfully embed a true experimentation approach and lastly, some practical experiments that you can start testing the second you put the book down. I have even enlisted some of the most talented digital marketers in the world to help pick out some of their recommended experiments. It is not often that you get the likes of Michael Brenner, Ciaran Rogers and Tim Pointer in the same book. By the end of this book, my hope is that you have a new lease on your digital marketing life and that your new mantra becomes "We don't chase the wins, we chase the insights".
