The rule of law is sometimes expressed as 'no person is above the law'. A more comprehensive description of the concept has been elusive for generations of scholars, lawyers and judges. What does the phrase mean? More specifically, what does the rule of law mean in the context of 21st century issues and challenges? Professor Robert A Stein, Justice Richard J Goldstone and CEELI Institute Founder Homer Moyer are the distinguished editors and authors of the second edition of The Rule of Law in the 21st Century, published in association with the International Bar Association. Joining Stein, Goldstone and Moyer is an array of internationally distinguished leaders of the legal profession from North America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East to explore the meaning of the rule of law today in a variety of circumstances. The book examines the concept of the rule of law from a variety of perspectives, beginning with the basic principles and all-important definitional issue of what the term "rule of law" means, and includes fully updated chapters covering the independence of the judiciary and the internationalisation of the rule of law. The second edition also contains several new chapters, including: War crimes and genocide: ultimate violations of the rule of law; Addressing the problem of corruption that threatens the rule of law; The rule of law and inequality of women in the US judiciary; Thirty years of rule of law learning; and Chapters describing law reform programmes that have strengthened the rule of law around the world in recent decades. The rule of law is humankind's best hope for freedom and justice. The second edition of The Rule of Law in the 21st Century gives us a better understanding of this important concept in the world today.
What really is going on in the university? Does it matter which college you attend? Do you have a strategy in place to make your decision? Is college right for you? Professor Roberts gives honest and candid answers to these questions. As an executive in the financial services industry and as an assistant professor of economics, he has instructed, managed, hired, replaced and mentored thousands of college graduates. He has interviewed hundreds of students. What he has found in his experience has resulted in this compelling and candid assessment of the higher education industry. The situation in our colleges is critical. Most college students are receiving little return on their money. Professor Roberts urges all students and their parents to consider this huge investment and understand the implications of their decision before jumping in and becoming part of the "college frenzy." This is a "must-read" for parents, students, and every person who has an interest in higher education.
We can't change the genes we are dealt. But we can change the way they behave... In This Book Could Save Your Life, Professor Robert Thomas, one of Britain's leading oncologists and an expert in integrating nutritional and lifestyle strategies into cancer treatment, gives us the facts about everything from diet and exercise to sleep and sunbathing. This book doesn't just offer advice, it outlines in detail the underlying chemical pathways of our lifestyle choices. As Thomas explains, while we must all accept the DNA we are dealt, through achievable changes to our daily routine we can significantly improve the expression of our genes - helping us beat the odds of cancer and chronic disease. We discover, for example, why drinking a glass of red wine or eating some grapes after sunbathing can reduce lasting skin damage; why eating olives with salami can transform potentially harmful nitrites into the beneficial nitric oxide, and why some houseplants are more effective than others in removing air toxins. This is a health bible for life, a book filled with fascinating and practical insights to return to again and again. Whether you are in your 20s or 70s, this book will help you to empower your body against aging and degenerative disease and live life at maximum strength.
