В жизни современного человека все большую роль играет трудовая деятельность. Причем она не сводится лишь к ежедневному посещению места работы и получению заработной платы.

Данная книга предлагает читателю материал, направленный на то, чтобы помочь "карьеристам" достичь однажды заветной цели. Главы выстроены в виде законов с формулировками, толкованием, доказательствами на исторических примерах, что позволяет со всех точек зрения осветить все тонкости карьерного роста.

В этом издании приводятся рецепты по излечению повсеместных, инфекционных, детских и прочих болезней. Текст дополнен справочным аппаратом, который облегчит современному читателю пользование наставлениями доктора Лоевского.

An American Travesty is the first scholarly book in half a century to analyze the justice system’s response to sexual misconduct by children and adolescents in the United States. Writing with a refreshing dose of common sense, Franklin E. Zimring discusses our society's failure to consider the developmental status of adolescent sex offenders. Too often, he argues, the American legal system ignores age and developmental status when adjudicating young sexual offenders, in many cases responding as they would to an adult.

The present book is an attempt to contribute to filling this gap, albeit a quite subjective one: I tried to address this issue by referring to different phenomena in subatomic physics studied or predicted over the last decades and to which I contributed personally. Some of the predictions have been confirmed, others are still in the pipeline and quite a few might never be verified or even proven wrong. Still, I hope that even those in the last category might be useful, if not for any other reason than to prevent somebody else from repeating these mistakes. Given the general readership to which this book addresses itself, I attempted to present the effects discussed at a level accessible to the non-specialist.

In France, a country that awards its intellectuals the status other countries give their rock stars, Michel Foucault was part of a glittering generation of thinkers, one which also included Sartre, de Beauvoir and Deleuze. One of the great intellectual heroes of the twentieth century, Foucault was a man whose passion and reason were at the service of nearly every progressive cause of his time. From law and order, to mental health, to power and knowledge, he spearheaded public awareness of the dynamics that hold us all in thrall to a few powerful ideologies and interests. Arguably his finest work, Archaeology of Knowledge is a challenging but fantastically rewarding introduction to his ideas.

To my parents — who provided me not only with guidance and extraordinary opportunity early on, but also with a lifetime of support and encouragement. To my wife — for her continued orbearance, her extraordinary patience, her sage counsel, and her immeasurable support and To my three children — for their consistent understanding as I worked on this book, for teaching me the things I did not know as a pediatrician, for making me look good as a father, and most important, for all of the joy that they and my wife bring into my life.

Children of almost any age can break the law, but at what age should children first face the possibility of criminal responsibility for their alleged crimes? This work is the first global analysis of national minimum ages of criminal responsibility (MACRs), the international legal obligations that surround them, and the principal considerations for establishing and implementing respective age limits. Taking an international children's rights approach, with a rich theoretical framework and the vitality of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, this work maintains a critical perspective, such as in challenging the assumptions of many children's rights scholars and advocates. Compiling the age limits and statutory sources for all countries, this book explains the broad historical origins behind most of them, identifying the recurring practical challenges that affect every country and providing the first comprehensive evidence that a general principle of international law requires all nations, regardless of their treaty ratifications, to establish respective minimum age limits.

Cooperating for Peace and Security is a comprehensive survey of multilateral security cooperation since 1989. With essays by leading experts on topics from peacekeeping to nuclear security, it goes beyond theoretical discussions of the value of cooperation to show how the operational activities of international organizations meet the security needs of states. In particular, it explores the complex relationship between multilateralism and American security concerns. Covering the UN, NATO, and regional organizations, the authors show that U.S. interests have often shaped institutions. But, more strikingly, other states have also driven institutional change without U.S. support or even in the face of American opposition. This raises important questions about how the balance of power shapes international institutions. In a period of shifting power dynamics, the empirical evidence on security cooperation gathered in this volume is a unique resource for scholars and policy-makers concerned with the future of international institutions.
