Download or read book One L written by Scott Turow and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One L, Scott Turow's journal of his first year at law school and a best-seller when it was first published in 1977, has gone on to become a virtual bible for prospective law students. Not only does it introduce with remarkable clarity the ideas and issues that are the stuff of legal education; it brings alive the anxiety and competiveness--with others and, even more, with oneself--that set the tone in this crucible of character building. Each September, a new crop of students enter Harvard Law School to begin an intense, often grueling, sometimes harrowing year of introduction to the law. Turow's group of One Ls are fresh, bright, ambitious, and more than a little daunting. Even more impressive are the faculty. Will the One Ls survive? Will they excel? Will they make the Law Review, the outward and visible sign of success in this ultra-conservative microcosm? With remarkable insight into both his fellows and himself, Turow leads us through the ups and downs, the small triumphs and tragedies of the year, in an absorbing and thought-provoking narrative that teaches the reader not only about law school and the law but about the human beings who make them what they are. In the new afterword for this edition of One L, the author looks back on law school from the perspective of ten years' work as a lawyer and offers some suggestions for reforming legal education.

Download or read book True Security written by Michael J. Graetz and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social insurance in the United States--including the Social Security Act of 1935 and the Medicare, Medicaid, and disability insurance programs that were added later--may be the greatest triumph of American domestic policy. But true security has not been achieved. As Michael J. Graetz and Jerry L. Mashaw show in this pathbreaking book, the nation's system of social insurance is riddled with gaps, inefficiencies, and inequities. Even the most popular and successful programs, Medicare and Social Security, face serious financial challenges from the coming retirement of the baby boom generation and the aging of the population. This book challenges the notion that American social insurance must remain inadequate, unaffordable, or both. In sharp contrast to policymakers and analysts who debate only one income security program at a time, Graetz and Mashaw examine social insurance whole to assess its crucial role in providing economic security in a dynamic market economy. They recognize that, notwithstanding a proper emphasis on individual freedom and responsibility, Americans share a common fate that binds them together in a common enterprise. The authors offer us a new vision of the social insurance contract and concrete proposals to make the nation's families more secure without increasing costs.

Download or read book Towards the True Law written by Felipe De Jesus Fierro Alvidrez and published by . This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the Law exist? and if so, what is it? Can we know it? This book tries to answer these questions by approaching as a whole the problem of Law, its justification and demonstration. Because when facing multiple legal theories, many of which are contradictory, we have to ask ourselves what the true Law is, if it exists indeed, its origin, meaning and perspective. We are in pursuit of something more: the Law and its truth. This fundamental question must be scientifically solved, and in such an in-depth approach that only philosophy, traditionally understood as "knowledge by its first and principle causes, obtained under the natural light of reason," can give us the answer. the current thesis takes up the problem of knowledge and its theories of being and truth, to later contrast them with various juridical currents. Two different paths, processes and objects to reach the same conclusion. the result wasn't easy, but we believe we contributed with a juridical theory with seven rules of truthfulness, that from our humble point of view, solves the conflict over Law, its essence and properties. What is Right? What is Law? Does a juridical science exist? Does a true theory of Law exist or does each one of us have their own truth? These were the central questions we tried to answer in the current thesis; to demonstrate through reason the considerations raised here and to somehow contribute in a positive way to the growing relativism of this subject.
Download or read book The New Law Business Model written by Ali Katz and published by Lioncrest Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You became a lawyer to help people and have a great life. Instead, you're working insane hours, not making the money you had hoped, and are not fulfilled by your life as a lawyer. Ali Katz was struggling with the same issues while also being a single mom who needed control of her calendar. When she saw major flaws in the way lawyers, like herself, were taught to serve families and small business owners, she decided to do something about it. Ali developed a new way to practice law-one that puts relationships before transactions. And while that made her happy, the icing on the cake was that she started generating over $1 million annually in just three years, all while going to her office just three days a week. Now, Ali brings this knowledge and experience to bear in The New Law Business Model. If you're a lawyer, there's no need to abandon your dreams. In this book, Ali shows how to use your most valuable asset-your law degree-for the good of families, small businesses, and most importantly, your well-being. Pulling from her own journey, Ali shares the roadmap she followed and insights she found that made her success possible. The old law business model is broken. It's time to replace it with one that works for you, your family, and your clients. It's time to take back your time, your income, and your humanity. The New Law Business Model was created to guide inspired lawyers like you into a new era.
