Using the case of food labelling, this book demonstrates that the line between fair and potentially misleading communication can be approached in empirical terms, supplementing the predominantly political and legal deliberations that determine how society deals with these issues. By first critically reviewing the legal conception of misleading commercial practices manifest in EU law, the authors discuss whether and how it can be transposed into empirically measurable terms. Presenting four complementary experimental studies targeting recurrent grey-zone scenarios on the Danish food market, the book illustrates the potential of the so-called ShopTrip test paradigm which simulates and registers real-life e-shopping behaviour as it unfolds while yielding new types of data against which opposing assessments of potential misleadingness can be matched. The results are discussed in the light of possible paths of theoretical explanation and implications for future regulative practices, including companies' self-regulation.

At six feet, four inches and more than 220 pounds, Roger Clemens (1962- ) was a major figure in baseball for nearly a quarter century. The best pitcher of his generation, his 4,672 strikeouts rank third all-time. He dominates modern statistical analysis: all-time first in base-out runs saved, situational wins saved, win probability added and base-out wins saved. High strung and temperamental, Clemens got into a barroom brawl during his first semester at University of Texas and once was jailed for punching out a Houston police officer. He endured sports writers heckling his inarticulate English and hostile fans decrying his aggressive pitching style. He retired in 2007 amid the infamous Mitchell Report doping scandal. Questioned by a Congressional committee about his alleged use of steroids, Clemens was accused of perjury but later acquitted. This book covers his life and his sensational but controversial career.

Die Walpurgisnacht, die Nacht vom 30. April auf den 1. Mai, ist nach volkstumlicher Vorstellung das einschlagige Datum fur die Zusammenkunft von Geistern und Hexen. Wahrend der Hexenverfolgungen galt die Teilnahme am vermeintlichen Hexenkonvent als wichtiges Indiz fur das Crimen magiae, das Zaubereiverbrechen. Doch daruber hinaus wurde die Walpurgisnacht mit der Zeit ein verbreitetes kulturelles Thema. Literarisch bekannt geworden ist sie vor allem durch Goethes Faust-Dichtung. Die Studie erschliesst in der deutschsprachigen Dichtung von der Fruhen Neuzeit bis zur Gegenwart die Stoff- und Motivgeschichte der Walpurgisnacht und der sich zumeist in dieser Nacht ereignenden Geister- und Hexenversammlung.
