A man is found dead in an escape tunnel in an Italian
prisoner-of-war camp. Did he die in an accidental collapse - or was
this murder? Captain Henry `Cuckoo' Goyles, master tunneller and
amateur detective, takes up the case. This classic locked-room
mystery with a closed circle of suspects is woven together with a
thrilling story of escape from the camp, as the Second World War
nears its endgame and the British prisoners prepare to flee into
the Italian countryside.
This book advances current literature on the role and place of
animals in sport and society. It explores different forms of
sporting spaces, examines how figures of animals have been used to
racialize the human athlete, and encourages the reader to think
critically about animal ethics, animals in space, time and place,
and the human-animal relationship. The chapters highlight
persistent dichotomies in the use of and collaboration with animals
for sport, and present strategies for moving forward in the study
of interspecies relations.

This comprehensive textbook applies economic analysis to public
law. The economic analysis of law has revolutionized legal
scholarship and teaching in the last half-century, but it has
focused mostly on private law, business law, and criminal law. This
book extends the analysis to fundamental topics in public law, such
as the separation of government powers, regulation by agencies,
constitutional rights, and elections. Every public law involves six
fundamental processes of government: bargaining, voting,
entrenching, delegating, adjudicating, and enforcing. The book
devotes two chapters to each process, beginning with the economic
theory and then applying the theory to a wide range of puzzles and
problems in law. Each chapter concentrates on cases and legal
doctrine, showing the relevance of economics to the work of lawyers
and judges. Featuring lucid, accessible writing and engaging
examples, the book addresses enduring topics in public law as well
as modern controversies, including gerrymandering, voter
identification laws, and qualified immunity for police.
