This book uses empirical research to examine fluctuations and
periodicities in housing markets in the United Kingdom. Chapters
investigate received wisdom on housing market co-determination
before exploring an unconventional approach to analysing the
interaction and diffusion evidence base. Finally, the author
presents varied case studies, analysing price diffusion across
first-time and repeat buyer groups, regions and housing vintages,
as well as related macro variables. This volume will be of interest
to academics and researchers interested in the area of price
diffusion across housing markets.
Hegelian philosophy is now enjoying an enormous renaissance in the
English-speaking world. At the very centre of his work is the
monumental "Science of Logic." Hegel's theory of subjectivity,
which comprises the final third of the "Science of Logic," has been
comparatively neglected. This volume collects 15 essays on various
aspects of Hegel's theory of subjectivity. For Hegel, "substance is
subject." Anyone aspiring to understand Hegel's philosophy cannot
afford to neglect this central topic.
Cherished Plan celebrates RBGE at Benmore and the Desire to
commemorate Sir Isaac Bayley Balfour.
Hegel is regarded as the pinnacle of German idealism and his work
has undergone an enormous revival since 1975. In this book, David
Gray Carlson presents a systematic interpretation of Hegel's 'The
Science of Logic', a work largely overlooked, through a system of
accessible diagrams, identifying and explicating each of Hegel's
logical derivations.
This book features a lively debate between two prominent
scholars-Michael A. Genovese and David Gray Adler-on the critical
issue of whether the Constitution, written in the 18th Century,
remains adequate to the national security challenges of our time.
The question of the scope of the president's constitutional
authority-if any-to initiate war on behalf of the American people,
long the subject of heated debate in the corridors of power and the
groves of academe, has become an issue of surpassing importance for
a nation confronted by existential threats in an Age of Terrorism.
This question should be thoroughly reviewed and debated by members
of Congress, and considered by all Americans before they are asked
to go to war. If the constitutional allocation of powers on matters
of war and peace is outdated, what changes should be made? Is there
a need to increase presidential power? What role should Congress
play in the war on terror?
The first collection of essays directed towards jurisprudence with
a Hegelian theme. The editors are committed to the idea that Hegel
is the future source of great energy and insight within the legal
academy.
First published in 1993. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.

The application of the Political Question Doctrine is at a crucial
crossroads as the Supreme Court continues to test new "War on
Terrorism" initiatives. Historically, the political question
doctrine has held the courts from resolving constitutional issues
that are better left to other departments of government, as a way
of maintaining the system of checks and balances. However, the
doctrine's many ambiguities have allowed a roughly defined
juxtaposition of the branches of government during previous years
when the Republic was concerned with both international matters and
those within its continental confines. The Political Question
Doctrine and the Supreme Court of the United States discusses the
gradual changes in the parameters of the doctrine, including its
current position dealing with increasingly extraterritorial
concerns. Nada Mourtada-Sabbah and Bruce E. Cain bring together
critical essays that examine the broad issues of judicial
involvement in politics and the future of the doctrine. With a wide
range of historical and theoretical perspectives, this book will
stimulate debate among those interested in political science and
legal studies.

The Fourth Amendment is facing a crisis. New and emerging
surveillance technologies allow government agents to track us
wherever we go, to monitor our activities online and offline, and
to gather massive amounts of information relating to our financial
transactions, communications, and social contacts. In addition,
traditional police methods like stop-and-frisk have grown out of
control, subjecting hundreds of thousands of innocent citizens to
routine searches and seizures. In this work, David Gray uncovers
the original meaning of the Fourth Amendment to reveal how its
historical guarantees of collective security against threats of
'unreasonable searches and seizures' can provide concrete solutions
to the current crisis. This important work should be read by anyone
concerned with the ongoing viability of one of the most important
constitutional rights in an age of increasing government
surveillance.
The Law of Debtors and Creditors is a new case book for a
three-unit law school course focusing on the basic principles of
American debtor-creditor law. The book focuses on the law of
execution on money judgments, using New York law as a paradigm. It
also thoroughly covers fraudulent conveyance law, as it exists
under state law and under bankruptcy in general. The book also
explores the basic principles of chapter 7 liquidation, as well as
a thorough review of the avoidance powers granted to a bankruptcy
trustee under the Bankruptcy Code. Excluded from this volume is
coverage of issues unique to consumer bankruptcy, on which the
author has published a separate case book with Vandeplas
Publishing, LLC.About the author: David Gray Carlson is Professor
of Law at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of law. He is the author
of a treatise on secured credit in bankruptcy and of over sixty law
review articles on various aspects of bankruptcy and
debtor-creditor law. Many of these articles have involved
procedural and constitutional issues connected with the enforcement
of money judgments obtained in state and federal courts and issues
involving fraudulent conveyance and voidable preference law, all of
which are implicated in the current volume. He has taught a basic
debtor-creditor course for over 25 years. Besides teaching at
Cardozo Law School, Carlson has taught at the George Washington
School of Law, the, University of Miami Law School, the University
of Michigan Law School, Washington & Lee School of Law, and the
Interdisciplinary Institute at Herzlya, Israel.
The third edition of Consumer Bankruptcy is a case book designed
for a two- or three-unit law school course focusing solely on the
unique issues that arise under the United States Bankruptcy Code
when an individual with primarily consumer debts files for
bankruptcy. The book fully explores the complexities introduced in
2005 with the enactment of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and
Consumer Protection Act, legislation that clearly sets out consumer
bankruptcies as a very technical sub-specialty in the field of
bankruptcy. Covered in this book are the barriers to entry by a
consumer into chapter 7 liquidation, issues relating to discharge
of debt, chapter 13 plans and chapter 13 cases converted to chapter
7. About the author: David Gray Carlson is Professor of Law at the
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. He is the author of a treatise
on secured credit in bankruptcy and of over sixty law review
articles on various aspects of bankruptcy and debtor-creditor law.
Five of these articles concern the effect of the 2005 Bankruptcy
Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act, which revolutionized
the law of consumer bankruptcies. He has taught a basic bankruptcy
course for 25 years, before concluding that consumer bankruptcies
had become such a sub-specialty that it is better taught in a
course separate from the basic course. Besides teaching at Cardozo
Law School, Carlson has taught at George Washington University Law
School, University of Miami Law School, University of Michigan Law
School and Washington & Lee School of Law.

This book shows that transport matters. Comprising a series of
highly accessible chapters written by respected experts, it reviews
key transport issues and explains how and why effective and
efficient transport is fundamental to successfully addressing all
manner of public policy goals. Contributors explore how we 'do'
transport, as a result of the technologies available to us and the
cultures surrounding how we use them, and examine how this has
significant social, economic and environmental consequences. They
also provide key recommendations for how we could do things
differently to bring about a happier, healthier and more
economically secure future for all of us.
Although immunologists know rather a lot about the manif estation
of immunological memory, an understanding of the mechanism of
memory at cellular and biochemical levels eludes us. Indeed, as we
shall see, it is not even clear which of the several models used to
explain the working of memory approximates to the truth. It is in
order to report on approaches to this problem and on recent
experimental advances in the field of memory cells that this volume
has been put together. In the past 4-5 years cell surface molecules
that may enable us to define memory Band T cells have been
identified. It may now be possible to ask how memory cells are
generated and to define what signals are required during or after
antigenic encounter for a cell to enter the memory cell pool rather
than to terminally differentiate into an effector cell. The
transition from virgin cell to memory cell is clearly accompanied
by several biochemical changes. For B cells, isotype switching and
somatic mutations (leading to affinity maturation) are well-defined
phenomena, although the molecular mechanisms remain mys terious.
Both have received attention in many excellent reviews of late and
so are not considered in detail in this book. Neither switching nor
somatic mutation is a feature of peripheral T-cell maturation;
biochemical differences between virgin and mem ory T cells may only
relate to differing activation requirements and possibly changes in
the expression of accessory molecules.
