Sinossi

Celtic Legal Codes explores the sophisticated legal systems of pre-Norman Ireland and Wales, revealing how customary law governed various aspects of life. These systems emphasized restorative justice and communal responsibility, with kinship playing a crucial role in maintaining social order. Intriguingly, these weren't primitive systems but rather nuanced adaptations to their social and environmental contexts, challenging the notion of a single "Celtic" identity. The book delves into the intricacies of land ownership, highlighting the complexities of communal land tenure within kinship frameworks.

 
The book progresses from establishing the historical context to analyzing major themes such as legal procedures, conflict resolution, and the function of kinship. It uniquely interprets these native laws within their own context, avoiding the common pitfall of viewing them through the lens of later English legal concepts. By examining primary sources like early Irish and Welsh law tracts, supplemented by archaeological findings, Celtic Legal Codes provides a balanced and nuanced account of these understudied legal traditions.

    Francis Bacon said: “If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.” 
     
    This book is about the ultimate question. There is nothing that has been pondered more by mankind and nothing more divisive. Is there a God? 
     
    We divide ourselves into groups because of the different answers we have created. Many misunderstand or create concepts of what God actually means and believe it to be the one defined by Christians, Jews or Muslims. And yet, many, when pushed with some profound philosophical questions about the origin of the universe have no answer, other than we came from nothing. 
     
    Did we come from the mind of a creator, or from absolutely nothing? These are our stark choices. To have faith and believe. To deny all and accept existence from nothing. Or to accept we still do not know. What are you?

    Playful, formal, satirical and tender, the poems in The Fabulanarchist Luxury Uprising are wildly wide-ranging. Jack Houston whisks the reader through meditations on family life, the teachings of Lucretius, the sexual potential of Captain Barnacles, and dreams of a socialist utopia, managing to be both deeply weird and touching.
    In his debut pamphlet, Houston draws out and scrutinises the mundanities of life, showing how they can form part of something much bigger. His poems aim to awaken the capacity for revolution within us all, even if it only gets us as far as the roundabout in the local playpark.

    An atmospheric scientist explains why global climate change mitigation and energy decarbonization demand American diplomacy, technology, and policy 
     
     
      
    Professor of environmental engineering Daniel Cohan argues that escaping the gravest perils of climate change will first require American diplomacy, technological innovation, and policy to catalyze decarbonization globally. Combining his own expertise along with insights from more than a hundred interviews with diplomats, scholars, and clean-technology pioneers, Cohan identifies flaws in previous efforts to combat climate change. He highlights opportunities for more successful strategies, including international "climate clubs" and accelerated development of clean energy technologies. Grounded in history and emerging scholarship, this book offers a forward-looking vision of solutions to confronting climate gridlock and a clear-eyed recognition of the challenges to enacting them.
