"Held by Chinese Brigands" is one of the more popular adventure
stories for boys in the genre of imperial fiction popular at the
time of publishing in 1921. The setting is South China and the
action follows the adventures of the British heroes Frank Armitage
and Sir Thomas Armitage along with Mr Hennessy K. Waldron, of
Paradise City, Nevada, U.S.A who battle with the Brigand
Cheong-Chau in a tale of high adventure in the Far East.
"THE LAW-SCIENCE CHASM" is a socio-legal study that takes
seriously the varying approaches to science that physicians and
scientists use, as compared to legal actors such as judges and
lawyers. Offering a way to mediate and translate their different
perspectives and assumptions, Gilson uses sociological and
philosophical methodologies to explain each discipline to the
other.
"Gilson's book takes seriously the idea of the autopoietic
closure of society's communicative subsystems and works out the
consequences in particular for science and law. This analysis both
lends support to the credibility of the approach adopted and sheds
light on the problems and the direction in which potential
solutions might lie.... The book consequently makes an important
contribution not only to the literature dealing with the
relationship between science and law but also to the literature
dealing with the application of autopoietic systems theory to
tangible concerns. This book is therefore of clear significance to
those continuing to wrestle with the challenges thrown up by
science for law and policy even when the spotlight of public
attention is directed elsewhere."
- JOHN PATERSON, Professor of Law,
University of Aberdeen (from the Foreword)
Part of the new "Dissertation Series" from Quid Pro Books.
