Law and Truth
Taking up a single question -- 'What does it mean to say a proposition of law is true?' -- this book advances a major new account of truth in law. Drawing upon the later philosophy of Wittgenstein, as well as more recent postmodern theory of the relationship between language, meaning, and the world, Patterson examines leading contemporary jurisprudential approaches to this question and finds them flawed in similar and previously unnoticed ways. He offers a powerful alternative account of legal justification, one in which linguistic practice -- the use of forms of legal argument -- holds the key to legal meaning. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461199919

Conduct Unbecoming a Woman Medicine on Trial in Turn-of-the-Century Brooklyn
ln the spring of 1889, Brooklyn's premier newspaper, the Daily Eagle, printed a series of articles that detailed a history of midnight hearses and botched operations performed by a scalpel-eager female surgeon named Dr. Mary Dixon-Jones. The ensuing avalanche of public outrage gave rise to two trials -- one for manslaughter and one for libel -- which became a late 19th century sensation. Vividly recreating both trials, Regina Morantz-Sanchez provides a marvelous historical 'whodunit', inviting readers to sift through the evidence and evaluate the witnesses. This intricately crafted and mesmerizing piece of history reads like a suspense novel that skillfully examines masculine and feminine ideals in the late 19th century. Like many legal extravaganzas of our own time, the Mary Dixon-Jones trials highlighted broader social issues in America. They unmasked apprehension about not only the medical and social implications of radical gynecological surgery, but also the rapidly changing role of women in society. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461409978

Then Georgia and her husband die in a car accident, leaving behind their baby daughter, Keefer. Gordon and his parents are able to survive their sorrow only by devoting themselves to the care of the beloved one-year-old. But the decision of who will raise Keefer is far from over, and soon Gordon's most basic assumptions about his family will be challenged in ways so provocative that he will be driven to disbelief and then to outrage. The ordeal will test the bonds of this closely knit family, challenging even love's ultimate capacity to heal. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461719188

The Story Begins Essays on Literature
In this collection of ten essays, Oz shares his rich and rewarding experience as both writer and teveryer. As he analyzes the opening sections of novels and short stories by such varied writers as Agnon, Gogol, Kafka, Chekhov, Garcia Marquez, Raymond Carver, Oz instructs, challenges, and guides. He writes about the notion of 'beginnings' in terms of writing fiction, what the beginning might 'mean' to the author and how important it is. And best of all -- he entertains. He highlights opening paragraphs in which authors make promises they may or may not deliver later in the work, or deliver in unexpected ways, or deliver more than they have promised. Or they simply turn the initial promise upside down. A game that miraculously and playfully engages both writer and reader. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461720263

Darlinghissima Letters to a Friend
Janet Flanner's letters from Paris, written for the New Yorker under the pen name Genet, were widely read over a fifty-year span, which began shortly after the magazine's founding and continued until her retirement in 1975. Her crisp, elegant, and authoritative observations on European cultural, social, and political life made her one of the most respected journalists of her day. Now, through the hundreds of letters she wrote to her intimate friend, Natalia Danesi Murray, the witty and tender spirit behind her impersonal style for the New Yorker emerges in correspondence between two women from two different cultures living on two continents, yet entirely devoted to every other. The record of this extraordinary friendship has been amplified by Mrs. Murray's moving narrative of their life together and apart, revealing a gifted, loving, and noble individual who left an indelible image of a fascinating era. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461720421
