Federal Courts Standards of Review
This sophisticated but easy to understand exposition of the standards of review offers an invaluable resource for law students, law clerks, and practitioners. Decisions of the U.S. Courts of Appeals invariably are shaped by the applicable standards of review. Filling a huge gap in the literature, Standards of Review masterfully explains the standards controlling appellate review of district court decisions and agency actions. Leading academics have described the text as a superb treatment, clear and comprehensive, of a crucial aspect of every appellate case, that makes accessible even the most complex doctrines of review.
A Civil War Courtship
This book is one half of a correspondence between a young man named Edwin Weller of the 107th New York Infantry to a young lady in his home town, Antoinette "Nettie" Watkins. Miss Watkins' letters to Mr. Weller did not survive because soldiers in the field had no way to save them, and it was dangerous to keep them. If captured, the information in personal letters could be used against the soldier who had received them. These letters are the record of one Union solder's experience during the Civil War, and in their honesty and feeling capture an event that affected America for generations.

Theorizing Adaptation
From film and television theory to intertextuality, poststructuralism to queer theory, postcolonialism to meme theory, a host of contemporary theories in the humanities have engaged with adaptation studies. Yet theorizing adaptation has been deemed problematic in the humanities' theoretical and disciplinary wars, been charged with political incorrectness by both conservative and radical scholars, and declared outdated and painfully behind the times compared to other disciplines. And even separate from these problems of theorization is adaptation's subject matter - with many film adaptations of literature widely and simply declared "bad." In this thorough and groundbreaking study, author Kami...
