In this well-known study William Lyons presents a sustained and coherent theory of the emotions, and one which draws extensively on the work of physchologists and physiologists in the area. Professor Lyons starts by giving a thorough scholarly and critical survey of other principal theories, before setting out his own "casual-evaluative" account. In addition to giving an analysis of the nature of emotion - in which Lyons argues evaluative attitudes play a crucial part - his theory throws light on the motivating role of emotions in our lives, our attitudes towards our emotions and our responsibility for them. By now "Emotion" is established as a modern classic in theory of the emotions and one of the reasons why cognitive theories of the emotions are now in the ascendancy.

This edition of Lyons and Repetti’s Partnership Income Taxation attempts the simplest possible introduction to an intricate body of law. Any “simplified” description of the rules of partnership taxation would be so misleading as to be useless. Therefore, the authors have tried to make the subject accessible, not by paraphrasing the rules, but by including examples that are as straightforward as possible. The authors focus on simple partnerships holding few assets and engaging in routine transactions. They place the rules in context by pointing out the purposes of the Internal Revenue Code provisions and regulations and by presenting background information about practical matters, such as how partnerships maintain capital accounts and how nonrecourse financing works.
