The Oxford Handbook of Prosecutors and Prosecution
This book brings together the work of legal scholars, sociologists, criminologists, political scientists, and law reformers to better understand a pivotal actor in the criminal legal systems all around the world: the prosecutor. Scholarship focusing on prosecutors in particular has begun to emerge as its own sub-discipline within criminal law, and this book surveys the many different strands of that work, underscoring the diversity among prosecutors around the world. The chapters reveal the ordinary conduct of the prosecutor at various stages of criminal proceedings, the various interactions of prosecutors with local communities and other governmental actors, and the distinctive habits and concerns that arise for prosecutors in specialized settings such as juvenile justice and immigration.
Superpower
Meet Michael Skelly, the man boldly harnessing wind energy that could power America’s future and break its fossil fuel dependence in this “essential, compelling look into the future of the nation’s power grid” (Bryan Burrough, author of The Big Rich). The United States is in the midst of an energy transition. We have fallen out of love with dirty fossil fuels and want to embrace renewable energy sources like wind and solar. A transition from a North American power grid that is powered mostly by fossil fuels to one that is predominantly clean is feasible, but it would require a massive building spree—wind turbines, solar panels, wires, and billions of dollars would be needed.

Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine
A unique, in-depth discussion of the uses and conduct of cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) as decision-making aids in the health and medical fields, this volume is the product of over two years of comprehensive research and deliberation by a multi-disciplinary panel of economists, ethicists, psychometricians, and clinicians. Exploring cost-effectiveness in the context of societal decision-making for resource allocation purposes, this volume proposes that analysts include a "reference-case" analysis in all CEAs designed to inform resource allocation and puts forth the most explicit set of guidelines (together with their rationale) ever defined on the conduct of CEAs. Important theoretical an...

God and Gold
Economist Books of the Year, 2007 Financial Times Books of the Year, 2007 God and Gold is a brilliantly stimulating and provocative look at why, for over 300 years, the Anglo-Saxon powers have dominated the world economically and militarily. For four hundred years, Britain, America and their allies have dominated the world both militarily and economically. They have won the wars - the hot wars, the cold wars and the trade wars - time and again; and yet the battle for hearts and minds has proved far harder to win. In God and Gold, Walter Russell Mead examines why this has been the case and what the overwhelming ascendancy and concentration of power in the hands of 'les Anglo-Saxons' has meant for the direction of world history. In so doing, he sheds scintillating new light on the current political, economic and cultural climate, and suggests where we might be heading from here.
