Deftly combining elements of drama, humor, and historical
documentary, this novel tells the story of two brothers and the
different paths they choose after growing up in the tumult of the
1960s--amid marches in favor of nuclear disarmament, fundraisers
for victims of civil war, and relief of environmental disasters.
Initially inspired by the music of Bob Dylan, the elder brother,
Rob, campaigns passionately against the Vietnam War and apartheid
before settling down with marriage, his children, and a career. But
the younger boy, Tom, stays true to his roots and remains involved
in all the major campaign issues of the day. Set primarily against
the backdrop of Great Britain, as created by Margaret Thatcher and
Tony Blair, this narrative explores the last half-century of
radical protest in the UK.

In these highly competitive times, there is little room for firms
that are content to remain as they've always been. Global
competition, commoditisation, legal outsourcing and pressure from
clients to cut costs have created a sense of urgency within law
firms to better understand their own businesses. This has
implications for the way law firms view and use their resources,
expertise and human capital. A commitment to innovation opens doors
for law firms to better align themselves with client needs and
encourages the development of new tools and service offerings to
assist with on-going business needs. But what does innovation
really mean in a law firm context? In what ways can an undeniably
traditional industry demonstrate innovation? How do individual law
firms show what innovation means to them? Law Firm Innovation:
Insights and Practice not only answers these questions, but
provides an overview of innovation options and practices in a
changing legal marketplace. This guide offers practical advice for
firms that are looking to become more innovative in the way they
work, and it provides first-hand examples of innovation in practice
within the legal industry. This guide will enable you to: Gain

Humans are biologically programmed to seek out pleasurable
experiences. These experiences are processed in the mesolimbic
system, also referred to as the "reward center" of the brain, where
a number of chemical messengers work in concert to provide a net
release of dopamine in the Nucleus Accumbens. In some genetically
predisposed individuals, addiction occurs when the mechanisms of
the mesolimbic system are disrupted by the use of various drugs of
abuse. Since Alcoholics Anonymous was founded in 1935, it's 12 step
program of spiritual and character development has helped countless
alcoholics and drug addicts curb their self-destructive behaviors.
However, the program was developed at a time when comparatively
little was known about the function of the brain and it has never
been studied scientifically. This is the first book to take a
systematic look at the molecular neurobiology associated with each
of the 12 steps and to review the significant body of addiction
research literature that is pertinent to the program.
