Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A clear and comprehensive overview of presidential impeachment from
a leading expert in the field As a result of Donald Trump’s
presidency, impeachment was once again thrust into the spotlight of
American political discussion. However, its history goes back to
the very founding of the nation, when American colonists,
remembering their grievances against their former king, entrenched
the process in their new Constitution. The Law of Presidential
Impeachment breaks down both the law and politics of this process,
providing a comprehensive, nonpartisan, and up-to-date explanation
of the Constitution’s various mechanisms for holding presidents
accountable for their misdeeds. Based on a lifetime of scholarly
research, as well as unique experience as a witness and consultant
in the impeachment trials of Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Michael
J. Gerhardt’s new book takes the reader back to the basics of
presidential impeachments. Rather than provide reasons for or
against impeaching particular presidents, he explains the law and
procedures that govern impeachment, examining a number of
significant, yet under-explored, issues and themes. Gerhardt offers
new perspectives on the subject, arguing that it cannot be properly
understood in a vacuum, but must instead be viewed in the context
of its coordination with such other mechanisms as criminal
prosecutions, censure, elections, congressional oversight, and the
Fourteenth and Twenty-Fifth Amendments. The Law of Presidential
Impeachment will be an invaluable, accessible guide for future
generations, giving them a succinct yet remarkably nuanced
understanding of this core aspect of our executive branch and
overarching governmental system.
Video-recordings of families and groups of friends watching the
FIFA men's football World Cup in their homes allow access to the
empirical rather than the imagined or inscribed audiences of a
major television event. Qualitative analyses reveal how natural
audiences behave in the reception situation appropriating live
televised football through talk. Gerhardt shows how the mainly
English television viewers use an array of linguistic and embodied
resources to turn watching football into a meaningful activity in
their groups. Cohesive devices and sequentiality link the fans'
talk-in-interaction to the televised text (commentary and
pictures). Gaze behaviour, pointing, and even jumping up and down
are used as resources for a variety of functions like the
construction of an identity as football fan.
It has become evident within higher education and within (or in
partnership with) the workplace that there is a growing demand for
an integration of learning within the workplace. Formal and
intentional models and processes utilizing experiential learning
methods and pedagogy are often referred to as work integrated
learning. However, there is a vast cross-conceptualization evident
within the field between concepts such as work-related learning
(WRL), workplace learning (WPL), work-based learning (WBL), work
integrated learning (WIL), and experiential learning (EL).
Furthermore, there are vast differences between different
applications such as apprenticeships, higher degree apprenticeships
(HDA), co-operative education (Coop), internships, placements,
projects, sandwich courses, practicums, and more. There is a new
focus on the impact of WIL on the future labor force, specifically
of generations Z and Y. Applications of Work Integrated Learning
Among Gen Z and Y Students presents educational and theoretical
concepts related to WIL and Gen Z and Y students as a workforce.
The chapters include coverage not only on these concepts, but
in-depth research on the implications of WIL on these generations,
educational themes in WIL, and WIL innovation. The topic of WIL and
all its applications are covered in a global context and for all
fields of work, focusing on the skills and expertise gained from
the students of work-based learning along with insights on how
work-based learning is implemented by teachers and educational
administrations. This book is a valuable reference tool for
in-service and preservice teachers, administrators, teacher
educators, human resources and career development management,
practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and
students interested in insight, theory, and practical examples of
WIL from around the world and the impact these have within the
workplace as related to generations Y and Z.
