The Pursuit of Justice prints for the first time a collection of lectures and papers written and delivered by Lord Woolf since 1986, following his retirement in 2005 from the office of Lord Chief Justice and a judicial career that has spanned over four decades. The papers cover developments that have occurred in a variety of legal areas, and which continue to be relevant in a changing world, including the rule of law and the constitution, the role of judges, access to justice, human rights, medicine, the environment, crime and penal reform, and legal education. Each paper discusses the challenges that have arisen in English common law in recent times and the way they have been solved or attempted to be solved to ensure that justice is done: so that arrests and searches are made properly; that there are fair hearings; readily available lawful remedies; and the removal of unnecessary costs and delays.

Professor Jolowicz's comparative analysis of civil procedure concentrates on the purposes served by the institution of litigation rather than on the intentions of those who litigate. Stressing that those purposes go beyond mere dispute resolution by non-violent means, Jolowicz surveys a variety of topics of procedural law, making substantial use of the comparative method, in the attempt to examine and explain the ideas which underlie some of the most important of its constituent elements. In the final section, he deals with the reform of English law and ventures a prediction of the consequences that the new Civil Procedure Rules, together with the reforms which more or less immediately preceded them, will have on the character of English procedural law.

After a terrible incident, Wolf flees from his remote village, pursued by the lord's men. He's joined by his best friend and a bizarre female warrior from snow-covered Pythagor, only to discover that something from his nightmares might be chasing them as well. Tusk, the greatest knight the Fist of the Sun has ever seen, patrols the sprawling capital city and witnesses a disturbing change overtaking it. Unsettling sightings are being reported to the Faithful by villagers all across the mainland. High Priest Liverand desperately searches his ancient texts for the cause. From what he's uncovered so far, the implications could be catastrophic. If evil is coming, who will unify the forces against it?

Did they really believe a Lord would keep his end of the bargain? The pack travel to New Amsterdam, hoping that they will finally find their leader again. But once they get there, they have a chilling choice to make. Lord Ambrose de Jong tells them that Rory will be returned to them, as promised. But only if they wait until midsummer … and only if they sacrifice another in his place. After all they have been through, they are unwilling to trust the word of a Lord – and they are certainly not prepared to do as one says. They attempt to retrieve Rory without the Lord’s help, but it begins to seem like an impossible task. Luckily for them, an old friend returns from India. And he might just have the power they need to do things their own way …

Roguish. Reckless. Unreliable. Raff Pineda has a certain reputation among the Animari. He's the one to call if there's a party starting, not the man to rely on when all hell breaks loose. Though he's nominally the leader of the Pine Ridge pack, he defers to his second on the tough calls. Raff prefers to live fast and hard and keep his heart hidden, but a certain Eldritch princess won't fall for his usual tricks, and their contract political marriage may be anything but convenient. Ambitious. Elegant. Isolated. Princess Thalia Talfayen may not have been raised by a witch in a tower, but she's spent the last few decades locked up for a failed insurrection. Plotting and scheming come naturally to her; personal connections do not. Since she's come this far in her unstoppable quest to claim the silver throne, she won't hesitate to do whatever it takes to unite her people, even if that means giving herself to the big bad wolf...

A Room of One’s Own is an essay written by Virginia Woolf. It was published in 1929 and is based on two lectures given by the author in 1928 at two colleges for women at Cambridge. In this famous essay, Woolf addressed the status of women, and women artists in particular. In this essay, the author also asserts that a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write. According to Woolf, women’s creativity has been curtailed due to centuries of prejudice and financial and educational disadvantages. To emphasize her view, she offers the example of an imaginary gifted but uneducated sister of William Shakespeare, who, discouraged from all eventually kills herself. Woolf celebrates the work of women who have overcome that tradition and become writers, including Jane Austen, George Eliot, and the Brontë sisters, Anne, Charlotte, and Emily. In the final section Woolf suggests that great minds are neutral and argues that intellectual freedom requires financial freedom. The author entreats her audience to write not only fiction but poetry, criticism, and scholarly works as well.
