Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LEARN THE LAW WITH FAIRY TALES AND RHYMES! The Bar Exam: Most Law Students DREAD it! There are so many rules! I don't know what the rule is. I don't know why the rule is what it is. I forgot the rule! What if I don't pass Solutions? Case briefs? Outlines? Flash cards? ? Hey, let's just pile up the number of rules to learn with no real structure or analysis! Making the mountain even bigger is the opposite of climbing it. *Case briefs make you remember a case which won't be tested and learn irrelevant facts like case names. I NEVER wrote a book about case briefs. See why? You're learning about RULES not parties to a case! *Outlines? The blind leading the blind: If you already knew, you wouldn't need an outline and if you don't know the rules or how they are structured then you can't write an outline. Writing outlines is ineffective for internalizing rules and pointless for learning argumentation. I I NEVER wrote a book about outlining. See why? *Flash Cards? At least you're learning the rules, not how to apply them nor how to analyze facts for a new case. So ... better than nothing. But only goes part way. FAIRY TALES? WTF?!? Uh yeah, that was my reaction at first. But fairy tales are memorable, you already know the fact pattern. Fairy tales bring you back to a time when most of the rest of you were safe. Me, I was raised by wolves, but you probably weren't. What beautiful eyes you have! So even if your childhood was a nightmare full of marauding big bad wolves, a blonde squatter sleeping in your bed, a hut walking on chicken legs, or oh god what IS that under the bed... I think we have some good law stories for You to learn legal analysis and the rules of law! What if passing the bar examination in law was just like a fairy tale or nursery rhyme? It can be! Buy this book and start to have FUN with law! This book explains the bar exam using examples from Alice in Wonderland! It shows the parallels between common law and civil law and also provides vital test-taking tips. A fantastic discussion of basic principles of common law, including comparisons with continental European civil law, using Alice in Wonderland as a foil. Richly illustrated, the book also includes lyrical poems about leading cases. Make the study of law light hearted and fun using ... fairy tales!: ) Remember to learn more! QUIZMASTER LAW!

Book Synopsis The Dark Side of Alice in Wonderland by : Angela Youngman
Download or read book The Dark Side of Alice in Wonderland written by Angela Youngman and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2021-04-14 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique exploration of the character, the author, and the many transformations of Alice in modern culture—often in edgy and menacing ways. The Dark Side of Alice in Wonderland is the first investigation of the vast range of darker, more threatening aspects of this famous story, and the way Alice has been transformed over time. Although the children’s story has been in print for over 150 years, the mysteries and rumors surrounding the story and its creator Lewis Carroll have continued to grow. Alice has been transformed—this is the Alice of horror films, Halloween, murder and mystery, spectral ghosts, political satire, mental illnesses, weird feasts, Lolita, Tarot, pornography, and steampunk. The Beatles based famous songs such as “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” and “I am the Walrus” on Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and she has even attracted the attention of world-famous artists including Salvador Dali. The Japanese version of Lolita is so different from that of novelist Vladimir Nabokov—yet both are based on Alice. This is Alice in Wonderland as you have never seen her before: a dark, sometimes menacing, and threatening character. Was Carroll all that he seemed? The stories of his child friends, nude photographs, and sketches affect the way modern audiences look at the writer. Was he just a lonely academic, a closet pedophile, a brilliant puzzle maker—or even Jack the Ripper? For a book that began life as a simple children’s story, it has resulted in a vast array of dark concepts, ideas, and mysteries. With this book, you can step inside the world of Alice in Wonderland—and discover a dark side you never knew existed.
Book Synopsis Alice in Wonderland Syndrome by : Jan Dirk Blom
Download or read book Alice in Wonderland Syndrome written by Jan Dirk Blom and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides the first state-of-the-art overview of Alice in Wonderland syndrome, an enigmatic neurological condition characterised by perceptual distortions (for example, seeing things as being larger or smaller than they actually are; seeing human faces change into animal faces; feeling one’s body growing larger or smaller; experiencing time as slowing down or speeding up; etc.). It describes the clinical presentation of the syndrome, including its huge variety of symptoms and the variability of its natural course. The book starts out with several vivid case vignettes from the author’s clinical practice, and then explains how and why the concept was introduced. In addition, it explains what is currently known about the underlying medical conditions and brain mechanisms, proposes a diagnostic algorithm, and makes recommendations for treatment. Throughout the book, a recurring question is whether or not Charles Dodgson (aka Lewis Carroll) suffered from the symptoms he described so aptly in his famous children’s book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Accordingly, the book should appeal to anyone interested in the brain and its disorders, as well as readers interested in the life of Lewis Carroll.

Book excerpt: "A hugely inventive adventure." —Eoin Colfer, New York Times bestselling author of the Artemis Fowl series In a world where animals are slowly fading into extinction, twelve-year-old Kester Jaynes feels as if he hardly exists either. He’s been locked away in a home for troubled children and is unable to speak a word. Then one night, a flock of talking pigeons and a bossy cockroach come to help him escape, and he discovers that he can speak—to them. And the animals need him. Only Kester, with the aid of a stubborn, curious girl named Polly, can help them survive. The animals saved Kester. But can he save them? "When ninety-nine pigeons smash through the windows of Kester's prison and carry him North to the last of the animals…. it's a moment as thrilling as when James flies off in the Giant Peach. Highly recommended" —The Times (UK) “Combines a great fondness for animals with an appreciation of the freakish…. The reserved narrative tone and tender yet peculiar view of animals give this piece its own offbeat flavor.” —Kirkus Reviews “Alternately somber, thrilling, and silly.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Synopsis Stephen and Matilda's Civil War by : Matthew Lewis
Download or read book Stephen and Matilda's Civil War written by Matthew Lewis and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2020-01-19 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the twelfth-century rivalry for the throne between the daughter and the nephew of Henry I—a battle that tore England apart for over a decade. The Anarchy was the first civil war in post-Conquest England, enduring throughout the reign of King Stephen between 1135 and 1154. It ultimately brought about the end of the Norman dynasty and the birth of the mighty Plantagenet kings. When Henry I died having lost his only legitimate son in a shipwreck, his barons had sworn to recognize his daughter Matilda, widow of the Holy Roman Emperor, as his heir, and remarried her to Geoffrey, Count of Anjou. But when she was slow to move to England upon her father’s death, Henry’s favorite nephew, Stephen of Blois, rushed to have himself crowned, much as Henry himself had done on the death of his brother William Rufus. Supported by his brother Henry, Bishop of Winchester, Stephen made a promising start, but Matilda would not give up her birthright and tried to hold the English barons to their oaths. The result was more than a decade of civil war that saw England split apart. Empress Matilda is often remembered as aloof and high-handed, Stephen as ineffective and indecisive. By following both sides of the dispute and seeking to understand their actions and motivations, Matthew Lewis aims to reach a more rounded understanding of this crucial period of English history—and ask to what extent there really was anarchy.

Book Synopsis Teaching and Learning Proof Across the Grades by : Despina A. Stylianou
Download or read book Teaching and Learning Proof Across the Grades written by Despina A. Stylianou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Co-Publication of Routledge for the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) In recent years there has been increased interest in the nature and role of proof in mathematics education; with many mathematics educators advocating that proof should be a central part of the mathematics education of students at all grade levels. This important new collection provides that much-needed forum for mathematics educators to articulate a connected K-16 "story" of proof. Such a story includes understanding how the forms of proof, including the nature of argumentation and justification as well as what counts as proof, evolve chronologically and cognitively and how curricula and instruction can support the development of students’ understanding of proof. Collectively these essays inform educators and researchers at different grade levels about the teaching and learning of proof at each level and, thus, help advance the design of further empirical and theoretical work in this area. By building and extending on existing research and by allowing a variety of voices from the field to be heard, Teaching and Learning Proof Across the Grades not only highlights the main ideas that have recently emerged on proof research, but also defines an agenda for future study.

Book Synopsis Why Translation Studies Matters by : Daniel Gile
Download or read book Why Translation Studies Matters written by Daniel Gile and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether Translation Studies really matters is an important and challenging question which practitioners of translation and interpreting raise repeatedly. TS scholars, many of whom are translators and interpreters themselves, are not indifferent to it either. The twenty papers of this thematic volume, contributed by authors from various parts of Europe, from Brazil and from Israel, address it in a positive spirit. Some do so through direct critical reflection and analysis, arguing in particular that the engagement of TS with society should be strengthened so that the latter could benefit more from the former. Others illustrate the relevance and contribution of TS to society and to other disciplines from various angles. Topics broached include the cultural mediation role of translators, issues in literary translation, knowledge as intellectual capital, globalization through English and risks associated with it, bridging languages, mass media, corpora, training, the use of modern technology, interdisciplinarity with psycholinguistics and neurophysiology.
