Our list of new books is now updated.
In January, the Law Library received books on intellectual property, immigration practice, international human rights, and legal writing, among many other topics.
One of our new books is The View from the Bench and Chambers: Examining Judicial Process and Decision Making on the U.S. Courts of Appeals. From the publisher’s abstract:
“[The book combines] a series of quantitative analyses of judicial decisions with the perspectives gained from in-depth interviews with the judges and their law clerks.”
Check it out upstairs—shelved with other titles about U.S. appellate courts—in the Reading Room at KF 8750.B69 2014.
January can be a busy month as we process the end-of-year rush; this January we put over 150 new books and movies on the shelves. Other titles that might interest law students include:
- Crude. 2009 documentary. The filmmakers call it “[a]n inside look at the infamous $27 billion “Amazon Chernobyl” case.” KF 1298 .C78 2009
