Book excerpt: Professional Responsibility: Problems of Practice and the Profession, Eighth Edition, is known for its flexibility and adaptability to different teaching methods and student learning styles.

The book is structured to enable instructors to present the materials doctrinally or by area of practice. The extensive multifaceted problems provide instructors with a wide range of options for presenting the material. The authors have carefully crafted the text so that reading assignments are reasonable – typically 10-15 pages for a one-hour session and 20-25 pages for a two-hour session. The book offers three types of problems, each of which has a specific purpose in the student’s ethical education. The text and principal discussion problems are designed to help students develop the ability to make sound judgments for difficult questions of professional responsibility. Each chapter contains Rule Review questions that present multiple hypotheticals enabling students to understand the scope and limitations of important rules of professional conduct. Multiple-choice assessment questions at the end of each chapter with detailed answers help the students review major concepts in the chapter and prepare for the MPRE. New to the Eighth Edition: Length shortened by almost 200 pages, to focus on the most important ethical issues for two-hour courses, which are now the standard. A number of problems have been moved from the text to the website and are still available for professors who have used them in the past. More in-depth discussion of the duty of confidentiality, including comparing the scope of the duty of confidentiality in New York, the District of Columbia, and California with ABA Model Rule 1.6; examining the concepts of use and disclosure; and adding analysis of the “possession exception” to the duty of confidentiality focusing on the lawyer’s decision to take possession of such evidence and the distinction between tangible criminal material and real incriminating evidence. Coverage of a number of contemporary issues involving ethics and technology, including ethical propriety of a lawyer responding to on-line criticism and the ethical aspects of a lawyer’s use of artificial intelligence. Additional material on the obligations of defense counsel and prosecutors, including defense counsel’s obligations when advising a client regarding a competency defense and new problem material on prosecutors’ ethical obligations under Rule 3.8 dealing with evidence of a wrongful conviction. Revised material on delivery of legal services, including new material on removal of restrictions on the unauthorized practice of law, comments on legal services plans and delivery of legal services in criminal cases, and pro bono services offered by law firms. Post-2020 ethical issues, including the application of the crime-fraud exception to the attorney-client privilege and issues of frivolous claims in litigation involving the 2020 Presidential election; new material on Justice Department investigation of “pattern and practice” investigations of a number of city police departments; and scrutiny of financial benefits received by Supreme Court Justices. Benefits for instructors and students: Realistic problems that develop students’ ability to make sound judgments. Emphasis on guiding students to articulate a cogent philosophy of lawyering. Innovative, flexible organization suited to a variety of courses and clinical programs. Organized by major doctrinal concepts, such as confidentiality and conflicts of interest. Offers alternative organization by area of practice. Modular organization for professor choice. Manageable length. Extensive Teacher’s Manual suggests lessons, sample syllabi (for two- and three-hour classes), Q & A, and role-playing models. Multiple-choice assessment questions and answers located at the end of each chapter to prepare students for the MPRE. PowerPoint slides dealing with fundamental concepts and the basic problems presented in the book.

Book The World of Marcus Garvey

Download or read book The World of Marcus Garvey written by Judith Stein and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years during and after World War I the Pan-Africanist Marcus Garvey led what has been called the largest international mass movement of black people in the twentieth century. He and his organization, the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), built a steamship line, sponsored expeditions to Liberia, staged annual international conventions, inspired many black business enterprises, endorsed black political candidates, and fostered the study of black history and culture. In The World of Marcus Garvey, Judith Stein examines Garvey’s ideology and appeal by placing Garvey and the UNIA carefully in the context of the international black politics and class structure of the period. She analyzes the ways Garvey boldly employed conventional racial ideas and goals to organize a militant black population during the social and political upheavals of World War I and its aftermath. In addition, Stein sheds new light on her subject, drawing on personal interviews with surviving Garveyites and reports from the federal government’s intelligence organizations.

Book Edith Stein Letters to Roman Ingarden

Download or read book Edith Stein Letters to Roman Ingarden written by Edith Stein and published by ICS Publications. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edith Stein and Roman Ingarden, both students of Edmund Husserl, the founder of phenomenology, corresponded extensively between 1917 and 1938. These 162 letters, most published here for the first time, reveal a friendship that spanned the adult lives of these two important 20th-century thinkers. Through Stein’s letters, the reader can follow her through her student days, her conversion from Judaism to Catholicism, her professional life, and her decision to become a Carmelite nun in the Carmel of Cologne, where she took the name Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. The letters end in 1938, when the Nazi threat escalating throughout Eastern Europe made correspondence difficult, especially across national borders. Four years later Edith Stein was arrested in the Netherlands by the Nazi SS, transported to Auschwitz, and was killed in the gas chambers. Roman Ingarden survived World War II, continued his academic work in Poland, and died in 1970. Although Ingarden’s letters to her have not been found, Stein’s to him also help us understand the life of this Polish phenomenologist and aesthetician, his life in Poland, his intellectual development, his own writings and academic career, and the editorial assistance Stein provided for all of the works he published in German. Translated from the newest critical German edition by Dr. Hugh Candler Hunt, this premiere English edition of her correspondence—volume 12 of ICS Publications’ Collected Works of Edith Stein—gives us a fascinating and intimate window into Edith Stein’s rich life and personality, revealing her warmth and humor, deep capacity for friendship, and remarkable intellectual and spiritual depth. Book has 13 photos, bibliography and linked index.

Book Becoming Eve

Download or read book Becoming Eve written by Abby Stein and published by Seal Press. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The powerful coming-of-age story of an ultra-Orthodox child who was born to become a rabbinic leader and instead became a woman Abby Stein was raised in a Hasidic Jewish community in Brooklyn, isolated in a culture that lives according to the laws and practices of eighteenth-century Eastern Europe, speaking only Yiddish and Hebrew and shunning modern life. Stein was born as the first son in a dynastic rabbinical family, poised to become a leader of the next generation of Hasidic Jews. But Abby felt certain at a young age that she was a girl. She suppressed her desire for a new body while looking for answers wherever she could find them, from forbidden religious texts to smuggled secular examinations of faith. Finally, she orchestrated a personal exodus from ultra-Orthodox manhood to mainstream femininity-a radical choice that forced her to leave her home, her family, her way of life. Powerful in the truths it reveals about biology, culture, faith, and identity, Becoming Eve poses the enduring question: How far will you go to become the person you were meant to be?

Download or read book Body Text and Science written by M. Sawicki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is "scientific" about the natural and human sciences? Precisely this: the legibility of our worlds and the distinctive reading strategies that they provoke. That account of the essence of science comes from Edith Stein, who as HusserI's assistant 1916-1918 labored in vain to bring his massive Ideen to publication, and then went on to propose her own solution to the problem of finding a unified foundation for the social and physical sciences. Stein argued that human bodily life itself affords direct access to the interplay of natural causality, cultural motivation, and personal initiative in history and technology. She developed this line of approach to the sciences in her early scholarly publications, which too soon were overshadowed by her religious lectures and writings, and eventually were obscured by National Socialism's ideological attack on philosophies of empathy. Today, as her church prepares to declare Stein a saint, her secular philosophical achievements deserve another look.
