Rowman & Littlefield The Dubious Morality of Modern Administrative Law
Book SynopsisModern administrative law has been the subject of intense and protracted intellectual debate. In this book, Richard A. Epstein, one of America’s most prominent legal scholars, provides a withering critique of the progressive administrative state and calls for a return law to its original design, meaning, and structure.Trade ReviewA comprehensive criticism of modern administrative law, from its first principles to its finest details—in other words, quintessential Richard Epstein. -- Adam White, Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and Director of George Mason University’s C. Boyden Gray Center for the Study of the Administrative StateRichard Epstein is one of the very few scholars who can speak with authority about a subject as broad as the morality of administrative law. In this superb, clearly written and informative book, he contrasts traditional and modern administrative law and makes a powerful case that the modern administrative state fails the most important test of a legal system: consistently advancing the Rule of Law. -- Peter J. Wallison, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of Judicial Fortitude: The Last Chance to Rein in the Administrative State

Book SynopsisThe populations of American cities have always included poor people, but the predicament of the urban poor has worsened over time. Their social capital, that is, the connections and organizations that traditionally enabled them to form communities, has shredded.Economically comfortable Americans have come to increasingly care less about the plight of the urban poor and to think of them in terms of “us and them”. Considered lazy paupers in the early nineteenth century, the urban poor came to be seen as a violent criminal “underclass” by the end of the twentieth. Living primarily in the nation’s deindustrialized inner cities and making up nearly 15% of the population, today’s urban poor are oppressed people living in the midst of American affluence.This book examines how law works for, against, and with regard to the urban poor, with “law” being understood broadly to include not only laws but also legal proceedings and institutions. Law is too complicated and variable to be seen as simply a club used to beat down the urban poor, but it does work largely in negative ways for them.An essential text for both law students and those drawn to areas of social justice, this book shows how law helps create, expand, and perpetuate contemporary urban poverty.

Morgan James Publishing llc The Authoritarians: Their Assault on Individual
Book SynopsisJonathan W. Emord is one of the nation’s foremost experts on constitutional and administrative law and has practiced before the federal courts and agencies for thirty-five years. In The Authoritarians, Emord reveals the untold story and largely hidden practices of Authoritarians who have worked inside the United States government to undermine the Constitution and override rights protections since the earliest days of the Progressive Era. Emord traces the intellectual origins of Authoritarianism to its Hegelian roots in Germany. He shows how legions of academics, trained to hate the American system of government, became predominant in the major universities of America, entered government as top advisors, and successfully orchestrated an overthrow of the Constitution’s limits on power which put the rights of individuals in jeopardy from the Progressive Era through the New Deal to today. In The Authoritarians, readers learn how Authoritarians endorsed forced sterilization of 60,000 American citizens whom they deemed “undesirable” and “unfit”. Readers also learn how Authoritarians selectively created monopolies and overcame the constitutional limits on government power the Founding Fathers put in the Constitution to prevent tyranny, thus ushering in the foundation for a socialist state. In The Authoritarians, Emord reveals the lies told by advocates of the Black Lives Matter organization, Antifa, and the 1619 Project. He presents the startling fact that the first slaves in the Jamestown Colony in 1619 were not blacks, but whites and that in the antebellum South slave owners were not only white, but black. Readers also learn the inherent failings of socialism; the tremendous cost it imposes on human lives; and the grave threat to the survival and success of liberty and justice in America posed by Authoritarians such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Ed Markey, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris. The Authoritarians unveils a detailed strategy for restoring constitutional protection for individual rights and fending off the horrors of a socialist tidal wave now drenching America.

Prometheus Books Armed in America: A History of Gun Rights from
Book SynopsisThis accessible legal history describes how the Second Amendment has been interpreted throughout most of American history and shows that today's gun-rights advocates have drastically departed from the long-held interpretation of the constitutional right to bear arms. This illuminating study traces the transformation of the right to arms from its inception in English and colonial American law to today's impassioned gun-control debate. As historian and legal scholar Patrick J. Charles shows, what the right to arms means to Americans, as well as what it legally protects, has changed drastically since its first appearance in the 1689 Declaration of Rights. Armed in America explores how and why the right to arms transformed at different points in history. The right was initially meant to serve as a parliamentary right of resistance, yet by the ratification of the Second Amendment in 1791 the right had become indispensably intertwined with civic republicanism. As the United States progressed into the 19th century the right continued to change--this time away from civic republicanism and towards the individual-right understanding that is known today, albeit with the important caveat that the right could be severely restricted by the government's police power. Throughout the 20th century this understanding of the right remained the predominant view. But working behind the scenes was the beginnings of the gun-rights movement--a movement that was started in the early 20th century through the collective efforts of sporting magazine editors and was eventually commandeered by the National Rifle Association to become the gun-rights movement known today. Readers looking to sort through the shrill rhetoric surrounding the current gun debate and arrive at an informed understanding of the legal and historical development of the right to arms will find this book to be an invaluable resource.

American Bar Association The Corporate Counsel Survival Guide
Book SynopsisMaking the decision to pursue an in-house counsel position can be a daunting experience, in part because in-house positions are so different from working in a firm and can vary by company and industry. Written by William E. Kruse, Regulatory Compliance Officer and in-house legal counsel at Gallup, The Corporate Counsel Survivor Guide offers helpful insights into the unique aspects of serving as in-house counsel and provides a foundation for anyone who wants to learn more about in-house counsel life. But beyond the book's wise counsel, the author’s witty and clever words make his advice fun to read and easy to follow. As he puts it in the Preface, this is a book that passes "on valuable advice for new in-house counsel that won't bore anyone to death in the process." Topics cover the essentials for anyone starting or considering an in-house counsel position, including: How to get your bearings during your first hundred days Managing an internal crisis, from not overreacting to understanding the critical importance of the signs that are being sent Getting work done and how to use time wisely Avoiding land mines The business of law in a business Working with others in your company and how to make arguments to convince people of what's in their best legal interest Surviving a crisis, adapting to change, relocation, training, mentoring, and other challenges of corporate life "Bill Kruse's book is exactly what both in-house and outside counsel need. It not only reveals the unvarnished reality and challenges that in-house face on a daily basis, but it does so entertainingly, with humorous flair. The Corporate Counsel Survival Guide also confirms, to outside counsel, that no in-house counsel actually wants to hire a lawyer. Rather, they want outside counsel who understands the organization’s industry, business, and goals. In other words, inside counsel wants to engage outside counsel as business partners who will help them achieve the organization’s goals." -- Robert T. Rhoad, Sheppard Mullin, Washington, DC
