Pp. 257-291 a. 1 folded engraved plate showing the experimental apparatus used. <br/><br/><em>First appearance in German of this extremely important paper in which Gay-Lussac first formulated the law the Gay-Lussac's Law stating that if the mass and pressure of a gas are held constant then gas volume increases linearly as the temperature rises. This is sometimes written as V = k T where k is a constant dependent on the type mass and pressure of the gas and T is temperature on an absolute scale. In terms of the ideal gas law k = n R / P."In 1802 he Gay-Lussac showed that different gases all expanded by equal amounts with rise in temperature. Charles had made the same discovery some years earlier but had not published it; the credit therefore belongs to Gay-Lussac at least as much and probably more. This was an extremely importent discovery which Avogadro was to use within the decade to formulate hid long-neglected hypothesis that equal volumes of different gases at equal temperatures contained equal numbers of particles."Asimov.Magie "A Source Book in Physics" p.165-172 - Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book of Chemistry" p. 374-379. - Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1802 C. </em> unknown

Previous Owner's Signature On Front Endpaper. Per Wikipedia Eugen Ehrlich 1862 -1922 Was An Austrian Legal Scholar And He Is Widely Regarded As One Of The Primary Founders Of The Modern Field Of Sociology Of Law. Ehrlich Was Born In Czernowitz In The Austro-Hungarian Empire. Ehrlich Studied Law In Lemberg Then In Vienna Where He Taught And Practiced As A Lawyer Before Returning To Czernowitz To Teach At The University There A Bastion Of Germanic Culture At The Eastern Edge Of The Empire. Ehrlich Remained There For The Rest Of His Teaching Career And Was Rector Of The University In 1906-7. During The Turmoil Of World War I When Czernowitz Was Occupied Several Times By Russian Forces He Moved To Switzerland. After The Break-Up Of The Austro-Hungarian Empire And The Ceding Of The Bukovina To Romania Ehrlich Planned To Return To Czernowitz Where He Would Have Been Required To Teach In Romanian But He Died Of Diabetes In Vienna Austria In 1922. Ehrlich's Experience Of The Bukovina's Legal Culture Where Austrian Law And Sharply Contrasting Local Custom Seemed To Co-Exist Caused Him To Question The Hierarchical Notions Of Law Propounded By Such Theorists As His Fellow Countryman The Jurist Hans Kelsen. Ehrlich Noted That Legal Theories That Recognized Law Only As A Sum Of Statutes And Court Decisions Gave An Inadequate View Of The Legal Reality Of A Community. Law If Understood Sociologically Embraces Much More Than Just State Legislation And Court Decisions. He Drew A Distinction Between Norms For Decision Entscheidungsnormen And Social Norms Or Norms Of Conduct Lebendes Recht.1 The Latter Are Created In The Social Interaction Of People. They Are Rules That Make Everyday Social Association Possible And Stable. Such Rules Actually Govern The Life Of A Society And Under Certain Conditions The Most Important Of Them Can Justifiably Be Regarded In Popular Consciousness If Not Necessarily By Lawyers As Law. In Addition These Social Norms Or "Living Law" As Ehrlich Called Them Are Frequently Adopted And Incorporated In State Law. For Example Commercial Usage And Custom May Develop And Be Recognized And Respected By Courts Of Law And Other Agencies As Having Normative Force And Legal Significance. Ehrlich Claimed That The Living Law That Regulates Social Life May Be Very Different From The Norms For Decision Applied By Courts And May Sometimes Attract Far Greater Cultural Authority Which Lawyers Cannot Safely Ignore. Norms For Decision Regulate Only Those Disputes That Are Brought Before A Judicial Or Other Tribunal. Living Law Is A Necessary Framework For The Routine Structuring Of Social Relationships. Its Source Is In The Many Different Kinds Of Social Associations In Which People Co-Exist. Its Essence Is Not Dispute And Litigation But Peace And Co-Operation. What Counts As Law Again From A Sociological Perspective Depends On What Kind Of Authority Exists To Give It Legal Significance Among Those It Is Supposed To Regulate. Ehrlich's Teaching Is That The Sources Of Law's Authority Are Plural. Some Sources Are Political And Others Are Cultural. As Such Political And Cultural Sources May Conflict. But Not All Social Norms Should Be Thought Of As 'Law' In Ehrlich's View. Legal Norms Again Understood Sociologically Rather Than Juristically Are Typically Distinguished From Merely Moral Or Customary Ones By Powerful Feelings Of Revulsion Which Typically Attach To Breach Of Them. They Are Thus Regarded As Socially Fundamental. In Addition Legal Norms Are Recognizable As Such Because They Concern Certain Kinds Of Relationships Transactions And Circumstances Which He Described As 'Facts Of The Law' Tatsachen Des Rechts - Specially Important Topics Or Considerations For Social Regulation. <br/> <br/> Harvard University Press hardcover

18245274Zacatecas: Imprenta del Superior Gobierno en Sto. Domingo 1824. Good plus. 14pp. Small quarto. Stitched as issued. Minor dampstaining at edges. Light purple discoloration at foot of text block. A later Zacatecas reimpression of a Spanish law regulating the behavior of magistrates judges and other public servants. The pamphlet is concerned primarily with the first two categories and prints thirty-three numbered points concerning their various responsibilities. The general category of "other" comprises seventeen points. The timing of the printing and reprinting is interesting. The law was first promulgated at Cadiz in 1813 but not printed in Zacatecas until 1824 meaning that Mexican independence occurred during the intervening years. Nevertheless the Zacatecan state government clearly thought that these laws sufficed as they ordered it reprinted "for its proper understanding and circulation throughout the state." A rather odd piece of government printing and apparently unrecorded; not in OCLC. Imprenta del Superior Gobierno, en Sto. Domingo unknown

The "American Blackstone." A monumental work of continuing relevance this reprint edition is prefaced by a new critical introduction by Paul Finkelman President William McKinley Distinguished Professor of Law and Public Policy Albany Law School and David Cobin Professor Hamline University School of Law St. Paul Minnesota. Tucker's Blackstone is a key resource for understanding how Americans viewed English common law in the years following the adoption of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Based on his lectures at the College of William and Mary St. George Tucker interprets Blackstone's often antidemocratic viewpoint in an American context. A strong proponent of the First Amendment he elaborates a theory of free speech that is more expansive than in the English tradition. More recently Tucker's Blackstone has been cited in numerous constitutional cases by the U.S. Supreme Court relating to "original intent." Reprint of the rare first and only edition. "Tucker's Blackstone became a standard reference work for many American lawyers unable to consult a law library especially those on the frontier. It is impossible to measure its impact on American law but it is clear that sales were strongest in Virginia as could be expected; it was also widely used in Pennsylvania and South Carolina."

Sir Robert Brooke d.1558 was renowned for his great learning and probity as a judge. His Abridgement is based on Fitzherbert's Abridgement but it contains much new material. In all Brooke abridged nearly 21000 cases and digested them alphabetically under 404 headings. It abridges fully the Year Books of Henry VII and Henry VIII. Brooke proceeded with great care and accuracy and is believed to have had access to the original records of the Year Books.
