A unique discussion of the judicial system in Canada, this is the first book on the court system to be written from a social science, rather than a legal, perspective. McCormick analyzes which courts and judges are most often cited, and discusses party-capability theory in a Canadian context. He offers new data on the courts, including statistics on the Supreme Court caseload, the success rates on appeals from provincial courts of appeal to the Supreme Court, and success rates, by litigant category, in provincial and appeal court decisions.Written in accessible language and offering data that

"Lasting themes of perennial philosophy, central to our own postmodern culture, are interwoven by authors and editor. To what extent and in what ways is reality an artifact? There is no better introduction to the issue than the resulting collection, an artifact of deep insight and subtle dialectic." -- Ernest Sosa, Professor of Philosophy, Brown University "The discussion presented here is fascinating; the participants could not be more distinguished, and the issues are as engaging as any in contemporary metaphysics. This will make an elegant, handy introduction to some very important

A thoughtful consideration of the current level of development of multigrid methods, this volume is a carefully edited collection of papers that addresses its topic on several levels. The first three chapters orient the reader who is familiar with standard numerical techniques to multigrid methods, first by discussing multigrid in the context of standard techniques, second by detailing the mechanics of use of the method, and third by applying the basic method to some current problems in fluid dynamics. The fourth chapter provides a unified development, complete with theory, of algebraic multig

Engineers are a key occupational group in the transformation of the modern world. Contrasts between Japan’s "economic miracle" and Britain’s relative economic decline have often been linked to differences in education, training, and employment of engineers. Engineers in Japan and Britain uses careful and systematic comparisons to examine the approaches to the training and education of engineers in the two nations.

One of the most widely used introductions to the politics and policies of the European Union, and one of the few written specifically for American students, this new edition of John McCormick’s book brings the remarkable story of European integration up to date. Covering the history, governing institutions, and policies of the EU, McCormick argues that the EU is an economic and political superpower, has brought far-reaching changes to the lives of Europeans, and has helped the twenty-seven member states to take a newly assertive role on the global stage. Unlike other books on the EU, thi
