Corporate Finance Law

Principles and Policy

By: Louise Gullifer,Jennifer Payne

The third edition of this acclaimed book continues to provide a discussion of key theoretical and policy issues in corporate finance law. It has been fully updated to reflect developments in the law and the markets. One of the book's distinctive features is its equal coverage of both the equity and debt sides of corporate finance law, and it seeks, where possible, to compare and contrast the two. This book covers a broad range of topics regarding the debt and equity-raising choices of companies of all sizes, from SMEs to the largest publicly traded enterprises, and the mechanisms by which those providing capital are protected. Each chapter provides a critical analysis of the present law to enable the reader to understand the difficulties, risks and tensions in this area, and the attempts by the legislature, regulators and the courts, as well as the parties involved, to deal with them. The book will be of interest to practitioners, academics and students engaged in the practice and study of corporate finance law.

By: Jennifer Mason

They're called drakon in Greek, azhdaha in Persian, kelekona in Hawaiian, and have names in numerous other cultures as well. They're dragons.

The Poset of $k$-Shapes and Branching Rules for $k$-Schur Functions

By: Thomas Lam,Luc Lapointe,Jennifer Morse,Mark Shimozono

The authors give a combinatorial expansion of a Schubert homology class in the affine Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}_{\mathrm{SL}_k}$ into Schubert homology classes in $\mathrm{Gr}_{\mathrm{SL}_{k+1}}$. This is achieved by studying the combinatorics of a new class of partitions called $k$-shapes, which interpolates between $k$-cores and $k+1$-cores. The authors define a symmetric function for each $k$-shape, and show that they expand positively in terms of dual $k$-Schur functions. They obtain an explicit combinatorial description of the expansion of an ungraded $k$-Schur function into $k+1$-Schur functions. As a corollary, they give a formula for the Schur expansion of an ungraded $k$-Schur function.

Introduction to 3-Manifolds

By: Jennifer Schultens

This book grew out of a graduate course on 3-manifolds and is intended for a mathematically experienced audience that is new to low-dimensional topology. The exposition begins with the definition of a manifold, explores possible additional structures on manifolds, discusses the classification of surfaces, introduces key foundational results for 3-manifolds, and provides an overview of knot theory. It then continues with more specialized topics by briefly considering triangulations of 3-manifolds, normal surface theory, and Heegaard splittings. The book finishes with a discussion of topics relevant to viewing 3-manifolds via the curve complex. With about 250 figures and more than 200 exercises, this book can serve as an excellent overview and starting point for the study of 3-manifolds.

Freedom of Speech

By: Jennifer Mason

Freedom of Speech

By: Jennifer Mason

Sometimes, citizens believe having freedom of speech means they can say anything with no consequences. But over time, laws and Supreme Court rulings have limited the full freedom of this right to exclude hate speech and other potentially harmful expressions. Through examples, historical context, and clear explanations, readers learn the full extent of their freedom of speech. Modern court cases, particularly those having to do with students, show the relevance of this right in readers lives. Fact boxes, sidebars, historical images, and full-color photographs add even more information about the history of the Bill of Rights and the First Amendment.

South Pacific Contract Law

South Pacific Contract Law

By: Jennifer Corrin-Care

This book presents the general principles of contract law that apply in the countries of the University of the South Pacific ('USP') region - Cook Islands, Fiji Islands, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Niue, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Samoa, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. It is unique in that it provides the only up-to-date survey of regional authorities for the principles of contract operating within the region. Like many other branches of the law, contract law has yet to establish its own identity in the South Pacific. However, whilst it is still based on the law of England, there are significant differences between English contract law and South Pacific contract law. The text provides a clear explanation of this divergence and highlights regional innovations, both in the form of legislation and local case law. It also examines the role of customary law and provides a comprehensive study of the significant differences between the law of contract in individual regional countries. Comparison is made between regional law with current English contract law, and with the contract law of Australia and New Zealand, particularly where regional courts have preferred that law to the law of England. This book is essential reading for all students of contract law in the South Pacific and constitutes a very useful source book and guide for academics and practitioners, from within and outside the region.

The Family and the Nation

Gender and Citizenship in Revolutionary France, 1789–1830

By: Jennifer Ngaire Heuer

The French Revolution transformed the nation's—and eventually the world's—thinking about citizenship, nationality, and gender roles. At the same time, it created fundamental contradictions between citizenship and family as women acquired new rights and duties but remained dependents within the household. In The Family and the Nation, Jennifer Ngaire Heuer examines the meaning of citizenship during and after the revolution and the relationship between citizenship and gender as these ideas and practices were reworked in the late 1790s and early nineteenth century.Heuer argues that tensions between family and nation shaped men's and women's legal and social identities from the Revolution and Terror through the Restoration. She shows the critical importance of relating nationality to political citizenship and of examining the application, not just the creation, of new categories of membership in the nation. Heuer draws on diverse historical sources—from political treatises to police records, immigration reports to court cases—to demonstrate the extent of revolutionary concern over national citizenship. This book casts into relief France's evolving attitudes toward patriotism, immigration, and emigration, and the frequently opposing demands of family ties and citizenship.

A School Garden Project. A Planned CLIL Unit

By: Jennifer Müller

Lesson Plan from the year 2022 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, Martin Luther University (Institut für Schulpädagogik und Grundschuldidaktik), course: Content and Language Integrated Learning in the Classroom, language: English, abstract: One of the main characteristics of CLIL is that students learn about content e.g. science, ethics or physical educationand through an additional language other than their mother tongue. When it comes to evaluate the potential of CLIL, the pros and also the challenges of teaching content and language at the same time have to be considered. Therefore, it should also be differentiated that there are differences between Hard CLIL and Soft CLIL. Hard CLIL focuses on the main goal of acquisition of subject knowledge. It is taught by a teacher of this specific subject who has to follow the curriculum. Other than that, Soft CLIL puts emphasis on language benefits and takes up parts of the curriculum of a subject only. There, the teacher of a foreign language holds the lesson or units. During our seminar, we focused on Soft CLIL but there is still a lack of already prepared and tested material for both types of CLIL. The choice of which CLIL is implemented often depends on several factors like teacher availability, amount of time, the capacity to implement CLIL in general, networking etc.13 It is obvious that there has to be thoughtful planning before implementing CLIL in schools. But not only before implementing CLIL in the classrooms but also while preparing specific units there has to be thoughtful planning as well because there is a lot to convey in CLIL lessons e.g the vocabulary and basic skills like reading, listening, writing, speaking as well as the subject content. To plan a good lesson, the teacher has to be and has to prepare much material using e.g. scaffolding and glossaries. This fact can cause time problems for the teacher. Apart from that a challenging factor could be the overload of subject input. Some students struggle with language issues and therefore could have problems to process the content in the appropriate depth. That makes it necessary to very closely supervise the process but this, depending on the number of students, can sometimes be quite challenging. The teacher has to provide a range of necessary vocabulary with subject terminology to make sure the students are able to follow the content.

The Mirror and the Palette

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Mirror and the Palette

By: Jennifer Higgie

A dazzlingly original and ambitious book on the history of female self-portraiture by one of today's most well-respected art critics. Her story weaves in and out of time and place. She's Frida Kahlo, Loïs Mailou Jones and Amrita Sher-Gil en route to Mexico City, Paris or Bombay. She's Suzanne Valadon and Gwen John, craving city lights, the sea and solitude; she's Artemisia Gentileschi striding through the streets of Naples and Paula Modersohn-Becker in Worpswede. She's haunting museums in her paint-stained dress, scrutinising how El Greco or Titian or Van Dyck or Cézanne solved the problems that she too is facing. She's railing against her corsets, her chaperones, her husband and her brothers; she's hammering on doors, dreaming in her bedroom, working day and night in her studio. Despite the immense hurdles that have been placed in her way, she sits at her easel, picks up a mirror and paints a self-portrait because, as a subject, she is always available. Until the twentieth century, art history was, in the main, written by white men who tended to write about other white men. The idea that women in the West have always made art was rarely cited as a possibility. Yet they have - and, of course, continue to do so - often against tremendous odds, from laws and religion to the pressures of family and public disapproval. In The Mirror and the Palette, Jennifer Higgie introduces us to a cross-section of women artists who embody the fact that there is more than one way to understand our planet, more than one way to live in it and more than one way to make art about it. Spanning 500 years, biography and cultural history intertwine in a narrative packed with tales of rebellion, adventure, revolution, travel and tragedy enacted by women who turned their back on convention and lived lives of great resilience, creativity and bravery.

The series is divided into two strands: listening/speaking and reading/writing. There are four books in each strand, taking students from Basic to Advanced. The two books at each level explore different aspects of the same contemporary themes such as the effect of food on mood, experimental punishments for juvenile offenders, the role of cars in modern life, privacy in the workplace, and alternative medicine. The parallel books in each strand are linked by grammar and vocabulary as well, providing the opportunity to recycle and reinforce the language while the content remains fresh and exciting.
