Bargaining for Life
Author: Barbara Bates
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 1512800295
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
Tuberculosis was the most common cause of death in the United States during the nineteenth century. The lingering illness devastated the lives of patients and families, and by the turn of the century, fears of infectiousness compounded their anguish. Historians have usually focused on the changing medical knowledge of tuberculosis or on the social campaigns to combat it. Using a wide range of sources, especially the extensive correspondence of a Philadelphia physician, Lawrence F. Flick, in Bargaining for Life Barbara Bates documents the human story by chronicling how men and women attempted to cope with the illness, get treatment, earn their living, and maintain social relationships.

Bargaining for Eden
Author: Stephen Trimble
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520933737
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Beginning with an Olympic ski race in northern Utah, this heartfelt book from award-winning writer and photographer Stephen Trimble takes a penetrating look at the battles raging over the land—and the soul—of the American West. Bargaining for Eden investigates the high-profile story of a reclusive billionaire who worked relentlessly to acquire public land for his ski resort and to host the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. In a gripping, character-driven narrative, based on extensive interviews, Trimble tells of the land exchange deal that ensued, one of the largest and most controversial in U.S. history, as he deftly explores the inner conflicts, paradoxes, and greed at the heart of land-use disputes from the back rooms of Washington to the grassroots efforts of passionate citizens. Into this mix, Trimble weaves the personal story of how he, a lifelong environmentalist, ironically became a landowner and developer himself, and began to explore the ethics of ownership anew. We travel with Trimble in a fascinating journey that becomes, in the end, a hopeful credo to guide citizens and communities seeking to reinvent their relationship with the beloved American landscape.

Hard Bargains
Author: Linda R. Hirshman
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0195134206
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Men and women have always bargained for sex. In this controversial new book, philosopher-lawyer Linda Hirshman and legal historian Jane Larson provide the first comprehensive look at the politics of heterosexual sex in the West, from Hammurabi's Code to Monica Lewinsky. Starting with an essential summary of the roots of Western sex in the ancient near East and early modern Europe, the book quickly focuses on the history of the sexual regulation in America, which it describes in unprecedented detail. Hard Bargains also offers surprisingly workable proposals for a new sexual order--rape laws replaced by laws of sexual autonomy, adultery subjected to breach of contract action, prostitution considered an unfair labor practice. Hard Bargains takes a forthright and level-headed look at all aspects of one of the biggest controversies in contemporary American society--heterosexual sex--and delivers a radically new perspective on the sexual lives of women and men.

Prenuptial Agreements and the Presumption of Free Choice
Author: Sharon Thompson
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1782255591
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
This book provides an alternative perspective on an issue fraught with difficulty – the enforcement of prenuptial agreements. Such agreements are enforced because the law acknowledges the rights of spouses to make autonomous decisions about the division of their property on divorce. Yet this book demonstrates that, in the attempt to promote autonomy, other issues, such as imbalance of power between the parties, become obscured. This book offers an academic and practical analysis of the real impact of prenuptial agreements on the relationships of those involved. Using a feminist and contractual theoretical framework, it attempts to produce a more nuanced understanding of the autonomy exercised by parties entering into prenuptial agreements. This book also draws on an empirical study of the experiences and views of practitioners skilled in the formation and litigation of prenuptial agreements in New York. Lastly, it explores how the court might address concerns regarding power and autonomy during the drafting and enforcement processes of prenuptial agreements, which in turn may enhance the role that 'prenups' can play in the judicial allocation of spousal property on the breakdown of marriage.
