Children's animated adventure featuring the voice talents of
Brendan Fraser, Rob Corddry and William Shatner. On planet Baab,
Gary Supernova (voice of Corddry) is head of mission control at the
Baabian Aeronautics and Space Administration (BASA), while his
younger and more charismatic brother Scorch (Fraser) is the
planet's most famous astronaut. The difference between the brothers
is vast, and even Gary's son Kip (Jonathan Morgan Heit) favours his
uncle over his father. However, when a failed rescue mission
results in Scorch being held captive on planet Earth at the
infamous Area 51 by Agent Shanker (Shatner), it's left up to Gary
to save the day. Can he succeed in saving his brother and change
his son's opinion of him?

The ultimate page-turner. Imagine a crash course in South African
history presented as a page turning, Shawshank Redemption-like,
jail house-rock prison thriller. Imagine a book, the Pure white
book, written in closely guarded code, to all extents invisible,
because it is written with white ink on pure white pages. A book
that no one can see or hold in their hands, which has been passed
down orally by gangs in South African prisons, from generation to
generation. Welcome to Picketberg Prison and to the historic moment
in time when the gang-lord keepers of the code, for their own
reasons, decide to publish the entire Pure white book. Two
prisoners, neither of them gangsters, find themselves drawn into
this project as ghost-writers. They are Sipho Madini - a street kid
and gifted writer and poet - wrongfully imprisoned for burglary.
And Don February, in his late sixties, who grew up in District 6 as
a young gangster but who has since distanced himself from a
gangster identity. Don, who did time on Robben Island in the 1970s,
when it was still called "the University", has made it his mission
to transform this backwater prison into a place of higher learning.
Even the gangsters begin to show interest in Don's weekly
discussion groups which deal with the themes of colonisation,
dispossession and slavery. Through this process they begin to
interrogate their own gang histories, inscribed on their bodies in
the form of tattoos, and their own stories begin to unfold and
weave in ways they never could have predicted. This is the story of
two men's efforts not only to survive harsh prison conditions but
to bring mental freedom and higher consciousness to the other
inmates, challenging them to ask what the difference is between a
freedom fighter and a common criminal.
Commercial contract law is in every sense optional given the choice
between legal systems and law and arbitration. Its 'doctrines' are
in fact virtually all default rules. Contract Law Minimalism
advances the thesis that commercial parties prefer a minimalist law
that sets out to enforce what they have decided - but does nothing
else. The limited capacity of the legal process is the key to this
'minimalist' stance. This book considers evidence that such
minimalism is indeed what commercial parties choose to govern their
transactions. It critically engages with alternative schools of
thought, that call for active regulation of contracts to promote
either economic efficiency or the trust and co-operation necessary
for 'relational contracting'. The book also necessarily argues
against the view that private law should be understood
non-instrumentally (whether through promissory morality, corrective
justice, taxonomic rationality, or otherwise). It sketches a
restatement of English contract law in line with the thesis.
Exploring the key discussions and arguments in tort law, this book
enables students to get a deeper and more rounded understanding of
the subject. Part of the Great Debates series, it is an engaging
introduction to the more advanced legal concepts, such as negligent
breach of duty and vicarious liability. Each chapter is structured
around questions and debates that provoke deeper thought. It
features summaries of the views of notable experts on key topics
and each chapter ends with a list of further reading. This book is
ideal for use by ambitious students alongside a main course
textbook, encouraging them to think critically, analyse the topic
and gain new insights. The development of these skills and the
discursive nature of the series, with an emphasis on contentious
topics, means the book is also useful for students when preparing
their dissertations. Suitable for use on courses at all levels,
this book helps students to excel in coursework and exams.

This textbook is an engaging introduction to the more advanced
writings on contract law, primarily designed to allow students to
'get under the skin' of the topic and begin to build their critical
thinking and analysis skills. Each chapter is structured around key
questions and debates that provoke deeper thought and, ultimately,
a clearer understanding. This edition has been extensively
rewritten to include new cases and scholarship throughout. New
sections include 'no oral modification' clauses, substantive
fairness, regulation of standard-form contracts, and remoteness of
damage in contract. An excellent book for students of contract law
who wish to know more, the aim of the book is not to present a
complete overview of theoretical issues in contract law, but rather
to illustrate the current debates which are currently going on
among those working in shaping the area. The text features
summaries of the views of notable experts on key topics and each
chapter ends with a list of guided further reading. New to this
Edition: - Extensively rewritten to include new cases and
scholarship throughout. - New sections and debates include 'no oral
modification' clauses, substantive fairness, regulation of
standard-form contracts, and remoteness of damage in contract.
An assemblage of the lives and stories of several homeless people.
There's Valentine from Cameroon whose grandfather taught him how to
catch mermaids; Pinky who was eight in the 1976 riots; Gert the
horse thief who never attends a meeting but whose stories make a
big impression on the group; Virginia the actress with the narrow
bed; Patrick the cartoonist who is forced to eat live birds; Fresew
the Ethiopian chemist; Steven the ex-boxer who can change the
colour of a cow; Robert who explains how to remove tattoos with
condensed milk; and Sipho the much-loved poet who lives in a drain
under the city and who goes missing. This title is full of stories
of struggle and triumph.
New to Hart Publishing, this is the seventh edition of the classic
casebook on tort, the first of its kind in the UK, and for many
years now a bestselling and very popular text for students. This
new edition retains all the features that have made it such a
popular and respected text, with extensive commentary, questions
and notes supplementing the selection of cases and statutes which
form the core of the book. Taking a broadly contextual approach,
the book addresses all the main topics in tort law, is up-to-date,
doctrinally sound, stimulating and highly readable.
