This book utilizes court opinions, extensive explanatory text, strategic guides, and exercises to present the background necessary for students to develop effective appellate advocacy skills. Presented with the practitioner's needs in mind, Appellate Advocacy: Principles and Practices begins with the steps necessary to get a case before an appellate court: perfecting the appeal, preserving errors for review, and finality. It addresses the various routes to take: from appeals as of right, to writs of prohibition, to habeas corpus. Appellate Advocacy then moves to the scope and standards of review: discussing in turn civil cases, criminal cases, and review of agency decisions. In order to prepare students for the real world of appellate practice, the book presents vital information on issues like effective assistance of appellate counsel and the special concerns facing assigned counsel. In addition, there are extensive materials on the appellate skills of brief writing and oral argument presentation.This edition of Appellate Advocacy has been updated and significantly expanded. Changes are reflected in the following areas:•   substituting or adding cases from appellate courts around the country (to correct what some readers perceived to be an over-emphasis on New York law). •   adding a section on certified questions in Chapter 2, more detailed treatment of matters within trial courts' discretion, and review of administrative agency decisions in Chapter 4.•   adding important recent cases on effective assistance of appellate counsel have been added to Chapter 6.•   significantly augmenting Chapter 7 on post-conviction remedies with substantial updating of the materials on federal habeas corpus and the addition of an entirely new section on state collateral post-conviction remedies.Appellate Advocacy is an effective teaching tool for appellate advocacy courses, courses on post-conviction remedies, and in both first-year and upper-class moot court instruction.

Who or what is God? What is the purpose of life and how does one live happily? What is truth? What is justice? Beauty? When is it legitimate for one person to have power over another? Can any of these questions have a final answer? 12 professors guide you on this comprehensive tour of the history of Western philosophy from its origins in classical Greece 3,000 years ago to the present. The material is presented through a close examination of the central question of Western philosophy as considered through the thought of more than five dozen of history's critical figures. The course also examines the relationships among various schools of thought as they develop over time. This product is presented in 7 softcover books (Parts 1-7) for those who prefer a book, rather than audio or video. These are the Lecture Transcripts and Course Guidebooks.

From the Back Cover\n10 Things You Don't Have to Do to Be Close to God\nLike a succession of failed diet regimens, the much-touted techniques that are supposed to bring us closer to God "in our hearts" can instead make us feel anxious, frustrated, and overwhelmed.\nPhillip Cary explains that discipleship is a gradual, long-term process that comes through the gospel experienced in Christian community, not a to-do list designed to help us live the Christian life "right." He covers ten things we don't have to do to be close to God, skillfully unpacking the riches of traditional Christian spirituality. The expanded edition includes a new afterword.\n"Yes! No! Whoa! There are so many terrific, alarming, insightful zingers in this book that I agreed, disagreed, and, most of all, had to think about something on every page. Graceful and liberating, it is a word of wisdom and hope that just might convince anxious Christians that the gospel really is better news than we've yet imagined." 
--Andy Crouch, musician, public speaker, and author of The Tech-Wise Family: Everyday Steps for Putting Technology in Its Proper Place\n"This is, quite frankly, one of the best books I've read on the spiritual life over the past twenty-five years. I heartily recommend it." 
--Christopher A. Hall, president, Renovaré\n"Addressed to shepherds and their flocks, Good News for Anxious Christians features the admonishing, teaching, and comforting voice of a Christ-haunted philosophy professor. . . . The gospel, Cary argues, gives us permission to ignore anxiety-producing techniques because Christ is enough, period." 
--Christopher Benson, Christianity Today (5-star review)\n"Cary liberates persons enthralled by a god of spiritual techniques and practical sermons. . . . This is medicine for ministry." 
--Christian Century\n"Tremendously rich and thoughtful and wonderfully written. . . . This is solid pastoral theology, inviting deeper and more mature thinking about the slogans and clichés we too often hear." 
--Byron Borger, heartsandmindsbooks.com\nA talented teacher unpacks the riches of traditional Christian spirituality for Christians burdened by the guilt and anxiety of introspective, in-my-heart spiritual techniques. Phillip Cary explains that knowing God is a gradual, long-term process that comes through the gospel experienced in Christian community. The first edition has sold over 17,000 copies. The expanded edition includes a new afterword that offers further insights since the first edition was published over ten years ago.
