Publisher's Price USD 850. Special $50. This valuable book discusses the evolution of the law of insider trading and explores ways in which corporations can use compliance programs to deter wrongdoing with particular attention to multi-service financial institutions. Ferrara on Insider Trading and The Wall demonstrates how such firms can implement "Chinese Walls" and other procedural devices to prevent employees who acquire material nonpublic information from sharing it with employees who trade securities. The authors analyze the impact of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations regarding selective disclosure and insider trading. They also discuss recent cases and other important developments such as Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and a heightened regulatory focus on hedge funds. In addition the book provides suggested guidelines for deterring insider trading by employees. unknown books

Reprint of the first edition in English and the standard translation today. Fichte was one of the leading German Idealist philosophers in the period between Kant and Hegel and is considered to be one of the founders of German nationalism. Indeed his work is seen as a link between Kant's Critical Philosophy and Hegel's Philosophy of Spirit. The Science of Rights a restatement of Kantian principles in terms of natural law is his principal legal work. For Fichte the basis of law are legal relations that illuminate the principles of positive law. "His theory of law is highly abstract but in the notion of legal relations and in his conception of the necessary requirements of an international order he enunciated ideas of great value": Walker The Oxford Companion to Law 468. unknown books

New. $49.95 One of the greatest figures in modern international law James Brown Scott 1866-1943 intended to publish an autobiography titled Adventures in Internationalism. He wrote a few paragraphs for this book but he never completed it. He decided instead to entrust his life's story to George A. Finch a protege and friend. Finch began work on a biography with Scott's participation in the late 1930s but he never completed it. Using Finch's manuscripts and notes Butler has produced a compelling study of Scott's key role in several important diplomatic conferences and work as an author secretary of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and guiding force behind the American Society of International Law. "Scott fathered and fostered the development of international law during the greatest period of its history." --Manley O. Hudson Harvard Alumni Bulletin XXXIII No. 14 1 January 1931 419. George A.
