Liberty Fund Inc The Story of Law
Book SynopsisWritten for the layman as well as the legal practitioner, The Story of Law is the only complete outline history of the law ever published. It is the sort of book that any lawyer could take home and give to his children in their teens and twenties as a justification of his/her career. Moreover, The Story of Law has well been termed the perfect book for introducing a law student to the origin and history of the law.. John M Zane lucidly describes the growth and improvement of the law over thousands of years, and he points out that an increasing awareness of the individual as a person who is responsible for decision and action gradually transformed the law. Will be of interest to academics, students, practicing lawyers, and general readers alike.

In this introductory volume, Lynne Curry draws on close readings of U.S. Supreme Court and other twentieth-century legal decisions, supporting case materials, public health records, and legal and medical theories to trace the ways in which the courts' rulings have shaped the development of such controversial issues as mandatory vaccination, abortion and the right to die. An extensive collection of important documents is provided, along with a glossary of key people, events, and concepts; a chronology; a table of cases cited; an annotated bibliography; and a comprehensive index.

Book SynopsisThematic essays examine Indigenous hunting rights, resource law, gender, religious freedom, and family law.Trade Review"Nine writers provide essays on such topics as Hutterites, water rights, marriage, and Indians. Some of the authors deal with specific topics. Other essays by Wayne N. Renke, Dale Gibson, Arlene J. Kwasniak, Alastair R. Lucas, Marie L. Gordon, Jennifer Koshan and Elizabeth Whitsitt made good use of case studies as well as supreme court authority to produce a most interesting and readable book." Hugh Dempsey, Alberta History, March 2008"Like recent works on Nova Scotia and Manitoba, Swainger's volume deepens our understanding of the pivotal role courts play in shaping and reflecting the society in which they interpret law and dispense justice." Eric M. Adams, University of Alberta, The American Review of Canadian Studies, Winter 2008"The nine essays offered here are highly creditable, exhaustively researched, carefully controlled, firmly stated, and engagingly written.

University of Alberta Press Living Will Living Well
Book SynopsisClinical ethicist Dianne Godkin offers deeper understanding of the experience of preparing for end-of-life (advance directive).Trade Review"No one is immortal, and the best way to deal with the unfortunate is preparation. "Living Will, Living Well" is a guide to responsibly dealing with the event of death. Aimed at those in their later years, the book speaks of the importance of a living will and how the document isn't enough. "Living Will" offers advice on encouraging communication with loved ones and friends, assistance in dealing with the legal paperwork of wills and other complications that arise, and dealing with oneself after a loved one has passed on. "Living Will" is a solid compendium of knowledge on one's own death, and should be highly considered by those who don't want complications for themselves or their loved ones." Internet Bookwatch, Midwest Book Review, Nov. 2008"Godkin draws from her nursing experience and research in her advocacy of advanced directives. The five substantive chapters in this concise, clearly written volume are titled 'Protecting Self and Others,' 'Facing One's Mortality,' 'Talking about Death,' 'Choosing an Agent,' and 'Getting It Done.' In contrast with many such works, this volume is practical and concrete, noting that the general public became aware of the concept of advaced directives through legal cases like those of Karen Ann Quinlan and Terry Schiavo. These cases highlighted living wills' potential for protecting patient autonomy and supporting family, friends, and caregivers in making medical decisions for dying patients. To illustrate her message, Godkin introduces two fictitious individuals dying of leukemia: 'Alice,' 84, learns about advanced directives from a church workshop, prepares for her own death by preparing a legacy scrapbook, and dies peacefully in accord with her expressed wishes; and 'Martha,' 65. Godkin, a young nurse, is called in as Martha is dying, and is horrified by the quasi-violence of medical efforts to resuscitate Martha before she is 'efficiently pronounced dead.' Appendixes include 'Guiding Interview Questions,' 'Sample Advanced Directives,' and 'Educational Resources.' Valuable for health facility patients, staff, and visitors." H. J. John, Choice, April 2009"Minimally, the "publish or perish" world of the academy expects that the contents of doctoral dissertations will be mined for conference papers and/or articles in refereed journals. The academic ideal, however, is the dissertation's transformation into a book, something that Godkin, currently Regional Ethicist with Trillium Health Centre in Mississauga and a University of Toronto assistant professor, has done with "Apprehending Death: The Older Adult's Experience of Preparing an Advance Directive," her 2002 dissertation completed at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Nursing. Readers seeking a how-to book on preparing their own living will, aka an advance directive, will eventually get that information, but Godkin's doctoral research was more concerned about the process that seniors used in arriving at the creation of a living will than she was in its exact contents. Drawing heavily from the structure and content of chapters 4-8 of her dissertation, Godkin explores five themes which serve as the book's chapter titles: "Protecting Self and Others"; "Facing One's Mortality"; "Talking about Death"; "Choosing an Ally"; and "Getting It Done." In her study, Godkin interviewed 15 seniors whose reflections on preparing an advance directive are given voice through the narration of Godkin's composite creation, Alice Dawson, 84, whose "conversations" appear in italics while Godkin's analysis is in regular print. The book concludes with an eight-page Reference List and four appendices, with one being her interview questions, the second a "Sample Advance Directive," and the final two "Legislative Guidelines" and "Educational Resources." Godkin saw three audiences for Living Will, Living Well: individuals, especially older adults, who are considering preparing an advance directive; their family members or friends who would play a supportive role, including being the ally who would endeavour to ensure that the advance directive's terms were actualized; and health care providers. Godkin believes members of the last group because they see their goal as preserving life, often find themselves in conflict with living wills and, therefore, need to become better informed. Though the book is generally quite readable, given that two of the audiences are just average Canadians, Godkin needed to abandon some of the academic writing style, especially the reference citations within the text. Recommended." - Dave Jenkinson, University of Manitoba"This text sets out the matters to be considered and done in preparation for departure from this mortal coil. The highlight is the sample directives that will assist the reader in his or her testamentary decisions. A useful book for trial lawyers who have reached 65 years of age." Ronald F. MacIsaac, The Saskatchewan Advocate, December 2008

University of Alberta Press MÃtis in Canada
Book SynopsisTwelve essays look at Canadian MÃtis today in terms of history, identity, law, and politics.Trade Review#3 on McNally Robinson's Bestsellers list (Paperback Non-Fiction) for the week of June 9, 2013Everyone knows what is meant by the term Métis, and the people themselves are defined exactly by what they are not. The editors put it succinctly: 'About the only elements that tie this diversity together are the facts of the Métis peoples' distinctiveness - from other Indigenous peoples and from the settlers - and their constitutional recognition as rights-bearing, indigenous peoples in Canada.' This University of Alberta Press selection chronicles the unique Métis contribution to the Canadian story. Holly Doan, Blacklock's Reporter, November 9, 2013 [Full review at http://bit.ly/1aRm4Vf]"The 12 multidisciplinary essays here arose out of consideration of a key decision by the Supreme Court of Canada (R. v. Powley) that defined a ten-step test for Métis rights; how these rights play out in relation to that decision is elaborated in the four key sections implied in the title. There has not been a book this broad and deep concerning the Métis in over 20 years in Canada, so this provides a timely, informative grappling with recognition and affirmation of the Métis and their Aboriginal rights. Summing Up: Essential. All academic levels/libraries." G. Bruyere, Laurentian University, CHOICE Magazine, December 2013"...these essays, by and large, are both informative and entertaining to read. The new scholars featured in this volume interrogate the sources with intelligence and vigor, and the result is a provocative and fresh portrayal of the Métis experience in Canada." Heather Devine, Western Historical Quarterly, Summer 2014"The strong visual hierarchy is a highlight of this books’ interior typography, which has a refined, accomplished look to it. Overall, the book projects a quiet yet confident design.""...the authors share the goal of working towards a more complex and nuanced understanding of 'Métis.' By looking at the Métis from a variety of perspectives, the chapters will certainly stimulate reflection and discussion.... [T]he themes the book examines will be of interest to scholars of Aboriginal studies across Canada." * BC Studies *"[Métis in Canada] brings together a vastly diverse collection of essays, reflective of the multifaceted nature of the debates relating to Métis identifiy in Canada... Given the breadth of perspectives presented by the contributors, along with the text's overall contribution to discussions of Indigenous identity in Canada, it comes as no surprise that the editors are experts in Aboriginal policy.... Taken together, [Métis in Canada and "Métis": Race, Recognition, and the Struggle for Indigenous Peoplehood] shed new light on the intricacies surrounding not only intracommunity conceptions of Métis identify in Canada, but also longstanding, often problematic constructions of mixed-lineage and, by extension, Indigenous identities in alterity." -- Sarah MacKenzie * Canadian Literature *"The volume is notable for its efforts to capture the varied work that scholars across different disciplines are currently undertaking in the Metis past and present." -- Michel Hogue * Histoire Sociale / Social History *

University of Alberta Press Canadas Constitutional Revolution
Book SynopsisThe Honourable Barry L. Strayerâs political memoir on Canadian constitutional reform, 1960â1982.Trade Review"The Hon. Barry L. Strayer was instrumental in designing Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the 1982 repatriation of the Constitution. In Canada's Constitutional Revolution, the retired federal court judge recalls his involvement as a legal adviser during the period of constitutional reform from 1960 to '82." Quill & Quire"[On April 27, 1982, Queen Elizabeth signed the Constitution Act on Parliament Hill.] For nearly 15 years [Barry Strayer] had toiled mightily in the labyrinthine structures of federal constitutional planning and in the chambers of federal-provincial negotiations to get to just this moment. In Ottawa that day Canada's sovereignty was formalized; it gained untrammelled authority over its own constitution and it declared its subscription to human rights. Strayer was crucial to the federal government's constitutional endeavours, from policy consulting with the prime minister to reassuring parliamentarians, to preparing court cases, to organizing strategic planning and the writing of constitutional drafts. He was at the very centre of Canada's modern constitutional moment." John D. Whyte, Literary Review of Canada, May 2013"...a cogent, thorough, and diverting narrative of his time as a top-level constitutional advisor to the Lester B. Pearson and Pierre Trudeau Liberal governments.... In broad terms, the book is a meditation on the intellectual and political complexity of the transition, in a federal system, from a regime of legislative supremacy to one of constitutional supremacy..... The tone of the book is principally serious and scholarly, and provides a detailed and technical first-hand analysis of the development of the Charter and the Canada Act 1982." -- Tom O'Hara * Saskatchewan Law Review *"Barry L. Strayer's book about the formation of Canada's present constitutional order, and his own role in it, joins a short and distinctive shelf of similarly erudite yet also entertaining legal memoirs.... What could easily have been an unrelievedly ponderous exposition of constitutional law and history is leavened by Strayer's disarmingly informal and witty recollections of the leading personalities in Canadian politics from the 1950s to the 1980s.... Canada's constitutional revolution has worked overwhelmingly positive changes for that country, advancing the dignity and stature of a great nation and providing a globally relevant model for protecting human rights and individual freedom. For that and other reasons, Judge Strayer can look back with pride on his life's work." [Full review at https://www.h-net.org/reviews/showrev.php?id=39911] -- Bryan H. Wildenthal * H-Net Reviews *

Cambridge University Press You Cant Always Say What You Want
Book SynopsisThe freedom to think what you want and to say what you think has always generated a pushback of regulation and censorship. This raises the thorny question: to what extent does free speech actually endanger speech protection? This book examines today''s calls for speech legislation and places it into historical perspective, using fascinating examples from the past 200 years, to explain the historical context of laws regulating speech. Over time, the freedom to speak has grown, the ways in which we communicate have evolved due to technology, and our ideas about speech protection have been challenged as a result. Now more than ever, we are living in a free speech paradox: powerful speakers weaponize their rights in order to silence those less-powerful speakers who oppose them. By understanding how this situation has developed, we can stand up to these threats to the freedom of speech.Trade Review'The landscape of free speech is in constant flux, and Baron provides important context to the current debates.'
