Book Description
This anthology brings together legal and philosophical theorists to examine the normative and conceptual foundations of international criminal law. In particular, through these essays the international group of authors addresses questions of state sovereignty; of groups, rather than individuals, as perpetrators and victims of international crimes; of international criminal law and the promotion of human rights and social justice; and of what comes after international criminal prosecutions, namely, punishment and reconciliation. International criminal law is still an emerging field, and as it continues to develop, the elucidation of clear, consistent theoretical groundings for its practices will be crucial. The questions raised and issues addressed by the essays in this volume will aid in this important endeavor.

Book Description
Chess and the Law selectively surveys the many interesting and unusual ways that the game of chess has intersected with the practice of law in the United States. Written in an engaging narrative style, there are four types of entries: (1) accounts of chess-related crimes, lawsuits, and agency actions; (2) anecdotes about attorney- and judge-players of note; (3) comments on law journal articles that use chess as an analogy; and (4) chess-themed quotes and quips from judicial opinions. These pieces are interspersed, and loosely woven together in chapters, in a browsable book that is both informative and entertaining. Part true crime tale, part literary desk refernece for attorneys and judges who like to use chess quotes in their legal writing, Chess and Law is many things, beautifully blended together in a fun anthology that pulls off the trick of transforming into a page-turning tale of legal history, where it meets with chess history.

Book Description
The confluence of new ways of thinking about law with rapid technological change has led to an outpouring of fascinating literature about copyright. This Anthology contains material dealing with both prongs of recent thought about intellectual property. The first Part explores some of the new critical literature derived from theories about literature, economics, and law. As a body, the work reproduced here explores most of the central tenets of copyright law; the meaning of authorship, the nature of a copyrighted work, the contours of the idea-expression dichotomy, and the significance of originality. The rest of the Anthology explores more discrete areas of copyright law, using writings that discuss the ways in which technology may have an impact on the development of legal concepts.
