The first volume offers an extensive introduction tracing the development of various scientific fields, and explores the central texts/discoveries and their significance, as well as providing an account of their impact on literature.

Review The Law of Restitution / Little Brown and Company:Restitution, a vital means of redress in unjust enrichment cases, is a fundamental legal principle manifested explicitly in contract, tort, and much of the common law. Now, offering insightful analysis of principles and practical, expert advice about available remedies in a wide range of actions, The Law of Restitution gives you powerful strategies for cases involving such elements or allegations as: * Withdrawal of professional services * Disputes between contractors and subcontractors * Void leases * Foreclosure * Fraudulent bank conduct * Securities fraud * Copyright, patent, or trade secret infringement * Breach of advertising, consulting, or franchise contracts * Unjust enrichment of third-party beneficiaries Palmer shows how important restitution is in many contract situations, sometimes as an alternative or supplement to damages, sometimes as the only choice for obtaining relief. You'll find representative cases and pleadings in abundance, to help you plan your client's position and strategy.

Review Lives of the Literati (Thoemmes Press - Scottish Thought and Culture, 1750-1850) / Thoemmes Continuum:At the heart of the Scottish Thought lay a few dozen literary and scientific figures who distinguished themselves in fields as diverse as medicine, belles-lettres, poetry, drama, philosophy, religion, political economy, and history. Some of the best biographies of these literati were published in the nineteenth century, often by personal friends who were prominent men of letters in their own right. This set collects together seven of the most important of those biographical accounts. Each title is extremely rare today, and most have never before been reprinted. Each includes a new introduction, specially commissioned for the series.

Review The Dictionary Of Modern American Philosophers (4 Volume Set) / Thoemmes Press:The Dictionary of Modern American Philosophers includes both academic and non-academic philosophers, and a large number of female and minority thinkers whose work has been neglected. It includes those intellectuals involved in the development of psychology, pedagogy, sociology, anthropology, education, theology, political science, and several other fields, before these disciplines came to be considered distinct from philosophy in the late nineteenth century. Each entry contains a short biography of the writer, an exposition and analysis of his or her doctrines and ideas, a bibliography of writings, and suggestions for further reading. While all the major post-Civil War philosophers are present, the most valuable feature of this dictionary is its coverage of a huge range of less well-known writers, including hundreds of presently obscure thinkers. In many cases, the Dictionary of Modern American Philosophers offers the first scholarly treatment of the life and work.
