The quest of man has always been to survive, to live comfortably as an individual and as an individual-with-others. In that quest, certain conflicts erupts. For Nigerians and foreigners/academics who have an eye in Nigeria, some of the conflicts include '...Islam, Human Rights and Constitutional Democracy in Nigeria; The Need for a Confederal System of Government'; 'The right to vote a consequence of the right not to vote'; 'Osu caste'; et al. The conflict still protrudes itself in the corporate-commercial world, thus, 'The forms and validity of a company's contract', 'a critical appraisal of minutes of a company's proceeding', 'On the removal of a director...' An attempt at reconciling and proffering a solution to these conflicts was made in 'An appraisal of Savigny's philosophy of law in the light of Nigeria Legal System' and in 'The jurisprudence of the right to cultural identity in Nigeria'. De Memorabilia thus, is a collation of the provoking thoughts of Ifeanyi Emmanuel Okonkwo. A book which no political leader, director, academics, or inquisitive mind dares not to read.
This is an anthology of 20 poems each from both poets. An esoteric work filled with inspiration. It mercilessly delves into the modern issues of the day. A must read for anyone who still cherish words and condensed thoughts!

Internet of Things and the Law: Legal Strategies for Consumer-Centric Smart Technologies is the most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the legal issues in the Internet of Things (IoT). For decades, the decreasing importance of tangible wealth and power – and the increasing significance of their disembodied counterparts – has been the subject of much legal research. For some time now, legal scholars have grappled with how laws drafted for tangible property and predigital ‘offline’ technologies can cope with dematerialisation, digitalisation, and the internet. As dematerialisation continues, this book aims to illuminate the opposite movement: rematerialisation, namely, the retur...
n as much as we may fantasize about freedom, the truth is, behaving responsibly adds meaning to our lives and gives us a sense of empowerment. Being responsible means understanding responsibility and what one earns by being responsible. This book, "Responsibility Makes You Responsible" is an antidote to the general disease of high expectation of success in one's endeavor without making any useful effort to be successful; a social disease ravaging our youths today, who want to make it in life without offering what it takes to achieve one's expected greatness. It is a serious warning against spiritual and social 419 in action.
