This 1875 manual presents a detailed scientific picture of Greenland and its Arctic environment. Edited by the geologist Thomas Rupert Jones (1819-1911), it was prepared for the British Arctic Expedition of the same year in order to inform and instruct the explorers. The work presents previously ascertained information, ranging from astronomical data, including observations of the northern lights, through to material on plant and animal life. Sir George Nares (1831-1915), the expedition's leader, had hoped the North Pole could be reached. Though this proved impossible, a team of his men set a record for the furthest northern latitude attained at the time. Underpinning the expedition's gathering of important scientific and geographical results, this manual clarifies for modern readers the specific objectives of late Victorian polar research. Nares' official 1876 report and his 1878 two-volume account of the journey are also reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection.

This detailed, practitioner text, explains national security law in all its aspects. It collates and explains the core elements of the law, both substantive and procedural, and the practical issues which may arise in national security litigation. The book draws on the professional experience of a team of expert contributors. The first part explores the meaning of "national security", examines the respective roles in this area of Parliament, the executive and the courts, and explains the law relating to the security and intelligence agencies, their powers and oversight. The core of the book addresses the various executive measures used to disrupt terrorism, espionage and other hostile state activity, usually on the basis of secret intelligence, and the civil proceedings that may result from executive action taken for the national security purposes. The third part addresses national security and the criminal law. The remaining chapters address national security law in such diverse contexts as inquests, inquiries, employment, vetting, family, freedom of information, and data protection proceedings. National security law is now of relevance to a wide range of practising lawyers, judges, legislators, policymakers, oversight bodies, and academic experts working in a variety of legal fields well beyond public law. The highly-specialised nature of the topic make this book a vital text not only for those seeking an overview of the law, but also for experienced practitioners instructed to act in proceedings in which national security issues may arise. The intense media and public scrutiny which accompanies many national security cases will also make this book of interest to a wider audience seeking to understand the legal context of such cases.

The proceeds of crime field continues to be one of the fastest moving areas of the law within the criminal justice system. New cases are reported on a weekly, sometimes daily, basis as well as frequently in the major law reports. Millington and Sutherland Williams on the Proceeds of Crime offers an extensive, authorative examination of proceeds of crime and confiscation legislation. It provides an easily navigable step-by-step approach that considers how the legislation is geared to ensuring that criminals do not benefit from their crimes financially, as well as detailed coverage of every stage of the confiscation process. The newest edition has been fully updated to include all important legislative changes since the publication of the fifth edition. A chapter dedicated to sanctions has been added, the impact of crypto currencies is examined, analysis is provided of Law Commission reports on Supicious Activity Reports and the Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA), and there is a new chapter focusing on part six of POCA. Previous editions have been recognised by governments, both national and international, for their focus on the importance of asset recovery as a vital weapon in the fight against organised crime and corruption. Millington and Sutherland Williams on The Proceeds of Crime is used in the Academy of European Law (ERA) as well as the libraries of the Chief Justices of Jamaica, Barbados, and Papua New Guinea. The book serves as an international guide, assisting barristers, solicitors, practitioners, and academics in navigating this often-complex area of the law.
