This collection examines law and justice on television in different countries around the world. It provides a benchmark for further study of the nature and extent of television coverage of justice in fictional, reality and documentary forms. It does this by drawing on empirical work from a range of scholars in different jurisdictions. Each chapter looks at the raw data of how much "justice" material viewers were able to access in the multi-channel world of 2014 looking at three phases: apprehension (police), adjudication (lawyers), and disposition (prison/punishment). All of the authors indicate how television developed in their countries. Some have extensive public service channels mixed with private media channels. Financing ranges from advertising to programme sponsorship to licensing arrangements. A few countries have mixtures of these. Each author also examines how "TV justice" has developed in their own particular jurisdiction. Readers will find interesting variations and thought-provoking similarities. There are a lot of television shows focussed on legal themes that are imported around the world. The authors analyse these as well. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in law, popular culture, TV, or justice and provides an important addition to the literature due to its grounding in empirical data.

Television and streamed series that viewers watch on their TVs, computers, phones, and tablets are a crucial part of popular culture They have an influence on viewers and on law. People acquire values, behaviors, and stereotypes, both positive and negative, from television shows, which are relevant to people's acquisition of beliefs and to the development of law.. In this book, readers will find the first transnational, empirical look at ethnicity, gender, and diversity on legally-themed TV shows. Scholars determine the three most watched legally-themed shows in Brazil, Britain, Canada, Germany, Greece, Poland, Switzerland and the United States and then examine gender, age, ability, ethnicity, race, class, sexual orientation and nationality in those shows and countries. As such, this book provides an important link between law, TV, and what is going on in real life.

2 Kondensation des Wasserdampfes, die in Form von Dunst- und Nebeltropfchen auftritt. Diese Partikelchen, die einen Teil des in der Luft schwebend vorhandenen "Aerosols" darstellen, werden daher Kondensationskerne genannt. Das Ergebnis von COULIER wurde in der Folge von KIESSLING (1884), MAS CART (1893), AITKEN (1887) u. a. bestatigt. Der letztgenannte Forscher schuf zum ersten Male einen bequemen und handlichen Apparat zur Bestimmung der Anzahl der Kondensationskerne je Volumeinheit, den nach ihm benannten AITKENSchen Kernzahler, von ihm als "dust-counter" (Staubzahler) bezeichnet. AITKEN selbst untersuchte in einer groBen Zahl von Arbeiten 1-51, u. a.J das Verhalten der Kernzahlen und ihre Abhangigkeit von anderen meteorologi schen Faktoren. Gleich ihm setzte sich auch C. T. R. WILSON mit dem Problem der Wasserdampfkondensation in mehreren grundlegenden Arbeittm auseinander. Eine neue Note erhielt das Problem der Kondensationskerne jedoch durch Ein beziehung in den Bereich der Luftelektrizitat. Als Trager der Luftelektrizitat entdeckten in ihren grundlegenden Arbeiten um die Jahrhundertwende ELSTER und GEITEL die "Luftionen." Neben diesen kleinen, leicht beweglichen, elektrisch geladenen Teilchen fand im Jahre 1905 LANGEVIN die teilweise nach ihm benannten schweren Ionen, die in 10-100facher Anzahl vorhanden sind und eine etwa tausendmal geringere Beweglichkeit aufweisen. Auch sie sind Trager von Luft elektrizitat, wenn sie auch infolge ihrer geringeren Beweglichkeit fUr die dynami schen Vorgange unmittelbar keine so groBe Bedeutung haben wie die Kleinionen."

Narrated through the voice of Lannie, a nickname for Landry, a five year old girl describes her excitement and wonder while visiting the Canadian Rockies with her family. Elks, chipmunks, mountain goats, grizzly bears- all are on Lannie's visit. She sings, dances, takes a float trip on Bow River Falls, tours Sulphur Mountain in a gondola, and rides a horse named Sweetie in the Banff National Park. She learns new French words, like croissant and chocolate mousse and uses Canadian loonies and toonies to buy a souvenir. She finds out about a town in the Maritime Province of Canada, called Cheticamp, a fishing village where her Acadian ancestors lived. Fun activities include: matching pictures of animals with their tracks, drawing lines from words to pictures and learning to make chocolate mousse.
