Summary

Confusing Legal Terms serves as a vital reference, demystifying the often-incomprehensible language of the legal system. It reveals how legal jargon, instead of clarifying the law, can create barriers to understanding and justice. Legal terminology has roots in Latin, Old English, and Norman French, contributing to its complexity. The book emphasizes that clear legal language is essential for a fair and equitable legal system, where everyone can understand their rights and responsibilities.

 
The book explores the historical origins of legal jargon and dissects specific terms used across different areas of law, such as contract, family, and criminal law. Each chapter provides clear definitions, examples, and explanations of the significance of these terms, highlighting their practical applications in everyday situations. For example, understanding specific terminology can aid in signing contracts or understanding news reports about legal cases.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the origins of legal language, moving into specific areas of law, and culminating in a discussion of the consequences of impenetrable language. Ultimately, it offers suggestions for legal reform and promotes clearer communication within the legal system, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to navigate the complexities of legal terminology.

    Weaving together lyrical history and personal memoir, Virdi powerfully examines society’s—and her own—perception of life as a deaf person in America. 
     
    At the age of four, Jaipreet Virdi’s world went silent. A severe case of meningitis left her alive but deaf, suddenly treated differently by everyone. Her deafness downplayed by society and doctors, she struggled to “pass” as hearing for most of her life. Countless cures, treatments, and technologies led to dead ends. Never quite deaf enough for the Deaf community or quite hearing enough for the “normal” majority, Virdi was stuck in aural limbo for years. It wasn’t until her thirties, exasperated by problems with new digital hearing aids, that she began to actively assert her deafness and reexamine society’s—and her own—perception of life as a deaf person in America. 
      
    Through lyrical history and personal memoir, Hearing Happiness raises pivotal questions about deafness in American society and the endless quest for a cure. Taking us from the 1860s up to the present, Virdi combs archives and museums in order to understand the long history of curious cures: ear trumpets, violet ray apparatuses, vibrating massagers, electrotherapy machines, airplane diving, bloodletting, skull hammering, and many more. Hundreds of procedures and products have promised grand miracles but always failed to deliver a universal cure—a harmful legacy that is still present in contemporary biomedicine. 
     
    Weaving Virdi’s own experiences together with her exploration into the fascinating history of deafness cures, Hearing Happiness is a powerful story that America needs to hear.
