    Book Description

    This new book offers a fresh approach to teaching the law of sales of goods. Through precisely crafted problems, the book guides students through their own close textual analysis of Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code and then invites them to test their understanding by applying the Code to complex fact situations. Students learn how the Code works by actively parsing the language themselves and exploring the interpretational difficulties presented, rather than relying more passively on cases or explanatory text, which are included here only when necessary to furnish rules or interpretations not derivable by students' own close reading and analysis.

    With a primary focus on Article 2, the book also incorporates relevant material from Articles 1 and 7, and from related statutes such as the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), and the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-Sign). It concludes with an assignment on the economic loss doctrine and the relationship between Article 2 claims and tort liability. The text teaches the doctrinal content of the law of sales of goods, while concurrently building students' skills in reading statutes critically and constructing legal solutions to complex problems. The format keeps students actively engaged in analyzing statutory provisions and formulating answers. They will emerge from the process with a deep understanding of the Code, and with the skill to read any statute---including any amendments to Article 2---more effectively.

    The book is accompanied by a Teachers' Manual containing the authors' solutions for each of the problems in the text. If the Article 2 revision process results in the adoption of amendments to Article 2, a supplement will be available with additional problems based on the new provisions.

    1 out of 5 stars A Novel Approach that Falls Flat.......2005-12-06

    The authors of this book take a very novel approach to law school textbooks. But it falls flat.

    Each issue is covered briefly, followed by extensive questioning (usually building on the previous question) complete with blank spaces for you to answer, and, unfortunately, no answers. In fact, the sections of the book are grouped in "assignments," not chapters.

    By way of example on how brief I mean when I say briefly- in covering the issue of derivative-title exceptions, the full extent of the explanation on the law is :

    "The second exception to the derivative-title rule concerns the "buyers in the ordinary course of business," as set out in subsections (2) and (3) of 2-403."

    What follows are 4 pages of questions presumably testing your comphrension and understanding of that. Each question builds on the previous question (making it somewhat like a choose-your-own-adventure of law textbooks).

    When I had the extra time to devote to the day's assignment, this was a worthwhile approach that was extremely helpful in parsing through the material and the UCC and coming to a better understanding than a traditional textbook would offer.

    But in law school, some nights you just don't have the time to underake what the authors require you to do. If you miss a class, you might as well forget it.

    Without study aids, I would have been dead in the water.

    Suggestions to the authors: 1) include an answer supplement, or remove all the extra blank spaces and put them in the back of the book; 2) add a little more bulk to the explanations and explanations of the law. Should still be a textbook, and not a workbook.

            Product Description

            The Concise Edition is more than one third shorter than the full casebook. The Concise Edition, however, is not merely an abridgment of the full version, but rather a self-contained casebook specifically designed for the shorter Accounting for Lawyers courses. The Concise Edition stands entirely on its own, making no reference to the full edition, and providing complete, though more limited, coverage of the field. Despite the overall substantial reduction in the text, the concise edition contains some special added material designed to ease the introduction of several of the core topics in the field.

                      Book Description

                      It's one thing to deal with attention deficit disorder in the doctor's office, or at home-but quite another "out there," in the workplace. This unique guide focuses on adults living with ADD, and illustrates various ways to initiate and maintain the best possible work situation. Kathleen Nadeau brings her vast experience to bear on this central concern of adult life. The book is packed full of helpful advice and practical suggestions on everything from day-to-day problems to career issues that can affect a lifetime-and it emphasizes that people with ADD can be just as successful in their jobs and careers as anyone else.

                      ADD in the Workplace features a user-friendly large, open format with summaries at the beginning of each chapter-perfect for ADD adults. It offers an easy-to-follow progression from a general understanding of the situation to various specific issues, including ADD and social skills, job performance, and career choices for young adults with ADD. No ADD adult should be without this clear, comprehensive guide to succeeding in the workplace!

                      4 out of 5 stars A good guide to raising questions on the right career match for an ADDer.......2007-01-14

                      Don't expect this book to give you the answers to your struggles with ADD in the workplace. This book is not a cookbook on the issue,and it rather encourages introspection to discover who you really are and then take some action: your job has to match your skills and your interests, and it has to be an activity where your downside shows as little as possible. It is the only way to overcome ADD in an easier way and to achieve success. The author shows, with some story telling, different possibilities for different people. Some advice is also given about optimizing performance at work taking into account ADD traits (I wish she had been a bit more comprehensive in this part). Overall a very good book and an important addition to the ADD library.

                      5 out of 5 stars ADD in the Workplace.......2006-12-29

                      This is a succinct book with a very logical structure/layout, making it super-easy to find your way around. Kathleen Nadeau emphasizes the individuality of people with ADD and how ADD affects people differently, (e.g. when combined with various different personality types. She uses the Myers Briggs type indicator throughout the book - an interesting touch). A necessary accommodation for one ADD-er could be unneccessary or a hinderance for another. Within broad topics, she focuses on specific characteristics/ difficulties of people with ADD.

                      For example, in chapter 3, on job performance, there are clearly deliniated subsections on specific difficulties, such as:
                      -Distractibility: external distractions
                      -Distractibility: internal distractions
                      -hyperfocusing
                      -impulsivity
                      -hyperactivity
                      -memory problems
                      -need for stimulation (intolerance of routine)
                      -difficulty coordinating simultaneous tasks
                      -etc.

                      She gives some ideas on how to work with each of these (and other) common ADD difficulties.

                      Nadeau encourages readers to investigate their personality types and interests, when trying to improve their workplace issues, rather than focussing solely on their ADD symptoms - as these other aspects have an effect on how effective different techniques will be.

                      This is still a useful book, even though it's almost 10 years old.

                      5 out of 5 stars ADD in the Workplace ADDS a lot of info for people with ADD.......2000-10-21

                      In the Annotated Bibliography of "Learning A Living" A Guide to Planning Your Career and Finding a Job for People with Learning Disabilities, Attention Deficit Disorder, and Dyslexia, I wrote:

                      A comprehensive book, explaining the positives and negatives of ADD in the workplace. The book is written for people who are already working and does not include job hunting informaiton. Personal coping skills and accommodations for employers are described. The book covers possibilities for self-employment, telecommuting, an other ways of "customizing" your own job. Two combinations are covered in separate chapters: women with ADD and people with ADD who also have learning disabilities."

                      I would like to add a few other points:

                      1. The book is beautifully laid out in an "ADD-friendly" manner that makes it easy to read.

                      2. The author speaks in a respectful tone to the reader.

                      3. She is very positive about ADD.

                      If you have ADD, this book will add to your repertoire of skills in handling work issues.

                      5 out of 5 stars VALUABLE RESOURCE FOR ANYONE WHO HAS ADD.......1999-11-09

                      Kathleen Nadeau's book ADD IN THE WORKPLACE addresses those issues and problems which arise at work. It gives reliable information, and good suggestions. It not only helps the ADD adult understand and improve his or her work experiences but also gives them a better understanding of ADD and its effects on their lives. It is an easy to read, 'user friendly' book which I recommend to all my adult and college aged clients who are either in the workplace or wanting to get there.

                      Thanks Kathleen for writing a great book!

                      1 out of 5 stars Interesting but of limited application to most adults.......1999-04-24

                      I found this book interesting but it came up short in application to a wide population of people who have not been in therapy. A lot of the content seems to relate to the author's own experience (and she claims to have ADD herself) and does not cover a broad research-based area or cover the issues in depth.

                                Book Description

                                “The strength of Adrian Coles’ book is its basis in his extensive knowledge of workplace counselling in Britain and his wide knowledge and relationships with those who work in the area. What is magical about his book is his use of examples. Throughout, real life examples of workplace counselling, dilemmas, organisational and many other issues, help to illuminate concepts and bring theory down to earth.”
                                Michael Carroll, chartered counselling psychologist and Visiting Industrial Professor, University of Bristol.

                                This book is a thorough exploration of the people and practices involved in the provision of counselling in the workplace. It addresses questions such as:
                                · Why do employees need to be counselled in the workplace?
                                · Why is counselling in this context so different from counselling in other environments?
                                · Why are some workplace counsellors hard to manage?

                                Counselling in organisations is complicated because of the many different and conflicting interests of individuals involved in an organisation. A workplace counsellor needs to be aware of the many roles within an organisation and how those roles are perceived by different members of the organisation. Moreover, workplace counsellors need to know how to provide effective help for employees, and in particular, why this may need to be measured and evaluated by organisations.

                                Written predominantly from a psychodynamic perspective, the book looks at the complex conscious and unconscious roles that counsellors adopt in organisations and explores different approaches to providing counselling at work. The multitude of conflicting boundary issues present in workplace counselling are thoroughly explored - in particular, the differences between being a counsellor in a workplace and a counsellor in private practice.

                                Counselling in the Workplace also offers a unique management training programme for counsellor-managers and non-counselling managers. The book is essential reading for counsellors, human resource managers, workplace supervisors, trade union officials and all those involved in decision-making with regard to employee counselling.

                                  A practical, creative resource, Decisional Interviewing in a Cultural Context provides a workbook approach to learning interviewing skills.

Cultivating sensitivity to ethnographic, demographic, status, and affiliation differences between people, this workbook guides users toward more accurate assessments, more meaningful understanding, and more appropriate interventions. Students who want to practice their multicultural skills, faculty members who teach courses in counseling, clinical psychology, or social work, as well as professionals who want to sharpen their multicultural awareness in decisional interviewing will find the exercises and critical incidents in this workbook engaging and informative.
