Wisdom
Inspired by the idea that one of the greatest gifts one generation can give to another is the wisdom it has gained from experience, Andrew Zuckerman has recorded the thoughts and ideas of more than 50 of the world's most prominent writers, artists, designers, actors, politicians, and musicians, all over 65 years old.
Criminal Evidence
A concise and comprehensive introduction to the law of evidence, Criminal Evidence takes an active learning approach to help readers apply evidence law to real-life cases. Bestselling author Matthew Lippman, a professor of criminal law and criminal procedure for over 25 years, creates an engaging and accessible experience for students from a public policy perspective through a multitude of contemporary examples and factual case scenarios that illustrate the application of the law of evidence. Highlighting the theme of a balancing of interests in the law of evidence, readers are asked to apply a more critical examination of the use of evidence in the judicial system. The structure of the criminal justice system and coverage of the criminal investigative process is also introduced to readers.
Zuckerman Unbound
Philip Roth's fictional alter-ego returns in Zuckerman Unbound, "...masterful, sure in every touch." (The New York Times) The sensationalizing sixties are coming to an end, and even writing a novel can make you a star. The writer Nathan Zuckerman publishes his fourth book, an aggressive, abrasive, and comically erotic novel entitled Carnovsky, and all at once he is on the cover of Life, one of the decade's most notorious celebrities. This is the same Nathan Zuckerman who in Philip Roth's much praised The Ghost Writer was the dedicated young apprentice drawing sustenance from the great books and the integrity of their authors. Now in his mid-thirties, Zuckerman, a would-be recluse despite his...

The Principles of Criminal Evidence
Like any procedure for determining the truth about events, the law of criminal evidence has to be evaluated by reference to its structure and its general principles. However, there are three distinct principles governing the practices of the jury system which require that this particular law be treated in a distinct way. This book examines the role played by the lay judgement of jurors, and discusses the judicial practices which have evolved to satisy the following three principles: the desire to discover the truth; the need to protect the innocent from conviction; and the need to maintain adequate standards of propriety in the criminal process. The central feature of the law of criminal evidence is to be found in the courts' continual search for a balance between the competing demands of these three principles.
Society Without God
Are lawyers, by their very nature, agents of the state, of capital, of institutions of power? Or are there ways in which they can work constructively or transformatively for the disempowered, the working class, the underprivileged? Lawyers in a Postmodern World explores how lawyers actively create the forms of power which they and others deploy. Through engaging case studies, the book examines how lawyers work within and for powerful institutions and provides suggestions--both general and practical--for ways in which the practice of law can be made to work with and for the powerless. Individuals chapters address such subjects as the contradictions of radical law practice; legal work in South...
Bird
Turning his camera to the world of birds, Andrew Zuckerman has created a body of work showcasing more than 200 stunning photographs of nearly 75 different species.

The ultimate art book for ornithologists and nature enthusiasts alike, Bird is a volume of sublime beauty.

Philip Roth and the Zuckerman Books
Philip Roth's standing on the literary scene is undisputed. The recipient of innumerable literary awards, the Jewish American author has reached past the precincts of his Newark's Weequahic neighborhood to become one of the most significant American novelists of the late twentieth century, an unrivalled master of the art of fiction. His literary output spanning more than 50 years and more than thirty books has been astounding both in terms of quantity and quality. Roth's place among the classics has been established by a host of critical studies presenting Roth's work from a myriad of thematic perspectives. Critical literature on Roth has become a minor industry of sorts and the interested r...
