Product Description
The popularity and consistent use of Advanced Torts is testament to the fact that the most rapidly expanding areas of tort law are now advanced torts subjects -- not personal injury or other subjects covered in the basic torts course. This volume is unique in its coverage and breadth. Topics covered by Kutner and Reynolds include defamation, the rights of privacy and publicity, harm to family relationships, malicious prosecution, interference with common law civil rights, liability for economic loss, interference with contracts, trade secrets, unfair competition, and other business torts.

A 2003 supplement is available.

This coursebook also contains cases from outside the United States. They are included for the same reasons as American cases: their roles as legal precedents and value for instructional purposes. The use of non-American cases and treatises also makes the point that for many subjects, including torts, the law is "common," not American, and cases and literature from other countries with common law legal systems are sources of law and legal analysis for the United States. ...

Complexity Where Simplicity is Needed: Discourse on Kutner's
Law professors should never co-write a book.Therein no two people shouldever co-author a manuscript.It is obvious that Peter Kutner, tort expert,is the predominant voice in this book.Research on the background of Kuterand Reynolds shows a research professor pitted against a trial, classroomprofessor.Kutner is seen all the over the book due to his complexity. This is why the book is so distasteful is because Kutner like his usualstyle makes tort law too hard to understand and he cannot communicateeffectively. The only area where Kutner shines is in the defamationsection.Kutner is an expert at defamation, libel, slander, publicfigures, the First Amendment, and the best serum against defamation, laverdad: the Truth which as Jesus said sets you free.But, Kutner stillcannot communicate the point effectively.For example, Kutner could take awhole hour explaing third party liability and no one would understand.Andthe simple explination could be done by a high school history professor. If a man parks too far out into the street and one car must pass thewrongly parked car, and thus a wreck insues due to blockage of the streetthe man who parked wrong is liable.And there you are, the explination. Kutner also shows too much focus on Enlgish common law and there by assumesthat the US system of injustice is based on English common law forinterpretation of American juris prudence.While study of all forms of lawindicate the American system of injustice is based on both common law andstatutory law combined.The American system of current injustice is basedon the evolution of good statutory law such as the Code of Hamurabi, theCode of Justinian, tribal law (which Osborne Reynolds does write aboutquite well), the Bible, the Magna Carta, the Declaration of the rights ofman, and the Bill of Rights itself, definately inspired by DivinityHIMSELF. Also, Kutner does not build up a good background and backup ofsimple torts in reference to complex Torts 3.People must totally knowIntentional Torts, negligence, product liability, etc. to apply tointentional causation of breach of contract or marriage torts. In all,stay away from this book.Stay away from Kutner's classes, becausecomplicated writing leads to complicated discourse which leads to madnesson Kutner's final.Finally, stay away from the so called College of Law inwhich these gentlemen teach.Remember birds of a feather flock together. And in all cases this probably means there are others there who can'texplain property law, or make criminal law way too ward due to musiciangenius, or all zealous in preserving the law school, or just can't help youlearn the law.In the end, most of what you study for 400,000 hours tosurvive and end up to get a B-/C+ from these people is not worth theeffort.English common law and American common law/statutorylaw/historical law mix have nothing in common and should not be based oneach other.Trust me I should know about this a little since ah live inScutland.My voice never seems to translate to enscription. ...

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In fluid mechanics, the Reynolds number Re is a dimensionless number that gives a measure of the ratio of inertial forces left( rho {bold mathrm V}^2 right)to viscous forces left( {{mu {bold mathrm V}} over {L}} right) and consequently quantifies the relative importance of these two types of forces for given flow conditions. The concept was introduced by George Gabriel Stokes in 1851, but the Reynolds number is named after Osborne Reynolds (1842?1912), who popularized its use in 1883. Reynolds numbers frequently arise when performing dimensional analysis of fluid dynamics problems, and as such can be used to determine dynamic similitude between different experimental cases. They are also used to characterize different flow regimes, such as laminar or turbulent flow: laminar flow occurs at low Reynolds numbers, where viscous forces are dominant, and is characterized by smooth, constant fluid motion, while turbulent flow occurs at high Reynolds numbers and is dominated by inertial forces, which tend to produce random eddies, vortices and other flow instabilities. ...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Osborne Reynolds (23 August 1842 ? 21 February 1912) was a prominent innovator in the understanding of fluid dynamics. Separately, his studies of heat transfer between solids and fluids brought improvements in boiler and condenser design. Osborne Reynolds was born in Belfast and moved with his parents soon afterward to Dedham, Essex. His father worked as a school headmaster and clergyman, but was also a very able mathematician with a keen interest in mechanics. The father took out a number of patents for improvements to agricultural equipment, and the son credits him with being his chief teacher as a boy. ... Read more

Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
This collection reveals the history of English common law and Empire law in a vastly changing world of British expansion. Dominating the legal field is the Commentaries of the Law of England by Sir William Blackstone, which first appeared in 1765. Reference works such as almanacs and catalogues continue to educate us by revealing the day-to-day workings of society.

National team caps and goals correct as of 00:56, 14 October 2009 (UTC)Brandi Denise Chastain (born 21 July 1968, in San Jose, California) is a professional American soccer defender and midfielder currently playing for FC Gold Pride of Women's Professional Soccer and is a former member of the United States women's national soccer team. Chastain has played for San Jose CyberRays of the WUSA and California Storm of the WPSL. She is best known for her game-winning penalty against China in the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup final and her bra-baring celebration afterwards. She attended Archbishop Mitty High School in San Jose, California, helping take the team to three section championships. In 1986 Chastain was awarded the Soccer America Freshmen Player Of The Year award at the University of California-Berkeley. Soon after, she underwent reconstructive surgery on both knees which caused her to miss much of the 1987 and 1988 seasons. She transferred to Santa Clara University before the start of the 1989 season, leading them to two Final Four NCAA appearances, 1989 and 1990, before she graduated in 1991. Chastain first represented her country on 1 June 1988, against Japan. She scored her first (through fifth) international goals on 18 April 1991 when she came off the bench as a forward to score five consecutive goals in a 12-0 United States win in a CONCACAF FIFA Women's World Cup against Mexico. Team USA went on to win the World Cup, staged in China. After that first World Cup, she played club soccer for one season in Japan in 1993, earning team MVP honors and was the onl...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=148553 ... Read more
