Foskett on Compromise
Shackleton is a practical reference guide on conducting meetings for legal professionals, company secretaries, administrators, directors, local authorities, etc. The title is required by private and public companies and government departments who need to be aware of the change in the rules that should be adhered to when conducting a meeting. It provides a clear explanation of the law with precedents and case material.
The Law and Practice of Compromise
An established source of reference on all legal and practical matters connected with the settlement of disputes and actions, the 5th edition brings the work completely up-to-date with the implications of the Civil Procedure Rules which, with their emphasis on the early settlement of disputes, have made compromise an increasingly important area of litigation law. The text includes a large section of forms and precedents helping practitioners draft offers to settle in various circumstances. Separate chapters on compromise in particular areas of law address the specific needs of practitioners.
Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law
Euthanasia, Ethics and the Law argues that the law governing the ending of life in England and Wales is unclear, confused and often contradictory. It shows that the rules are in competition because the ethical principles underlying them are so diverse and conflicting. This book covers topics including the Diane Pretty litigation, Lord Joffe's Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill, the advent of 'death tourism' and the real status of involuntary and passive euthanasia in English law.

Too Big to Jail
American courts routinely hand down harsh sentences to individual convicts, but a very different standard of justice applies to corporations. Too Big to Jail takes readers into a complex, compromised world of backroom deals, for an unprecedented look at what happens when criminal charges are brought against a major company in the United States. Federal prosecutors benefit from expansive statutes that allow an entire firm to be held liable for a crime by a single employee. But when prosecutors target the Goliaths of the corporate world, they find themselves at a huge disadvantage. The government that bailed out corporations considered too economically important to fail also negotiates settlem...
Coercion to Compromise
Plea bargaining is one of the most striking features of American courts. The vast majority of criminal convictions today are produced through bargained pleas. Where does the practice come from? Whose interests does it serve? Often plea bargaining is imagined as a corruption of the court during the post-World War II years, paradoxically rewarding those who appear guilty rather than those claiming innocence.
