J is for Judgement is the tenth in the Kinsey Millhone mystery series by Sue Grafton. On the face of it, you wouldn't think there was any connection between the murder of a dead man and the events that changed my perceptions about my life... For Kinsey Millhone, the investigation started with a surprise visit from an ex-colleague at California Fidelity - the company that had fired her nine months previously. Fives hours later she was on a plane to Mexico, hot on the trial of a suicide who'd allegedly just come back to life. After a five year wait, Wendell Jaffe's widow had finally succeeded in having the real estate swindler declared dead, collecting half a million dollars for her pains. Now it looks like a 'pseudocide' - and Kinsey's ready to risk everything to get to the truth . . .

Good Judgment, based upon the author's experience as a lawyer, law professor, and judge, explores the role of the judge and the art of judging. Engaging with the American, English, and Commonwealth literature on the role of the judge in the common law tradition, Good Judgment addresses the following questions: What exactly do judges do? What is properly within their role and what falls outside? How do judges approach their decision-making task? In an attempt to explain and reconcile two fundamental features of judging, namely judicial choice and judicial discipline, this book explores the nature and extent of judicial choice in the common law legal tradition and the structural features of that tradition that control and constrain that element of choice. As Sharpe explains, the law does not always provide clear answers, and judges are often left with difficult choices to make, but the power of judicial choice is disciplined and constrained and judges are not free to decide cases according to their own personal sense of justice. Although Good Judgment is accessibly written to appeal to the non-specialist reader with an interest in the judicial process, it also tackles fundamental issues about the nature of law and the role of the judge and will be of particular interest to lawyers, judges, law students, and legal academics.

"J" for Jaffe: Wendell Jaffe, formodet død de sidste fem år. Eller sådan så det ud, indtil hans tidligere forsikringsagent spottede ham i baren på et støvet lille hotel halvvejs mellem Cabo San Lucas og La Paz. Og selvom Jaffe ved sin "død" var konkurs, var han ikke uden aktiver. Der var f.eks. $500.000 i livsforsikring til hans kone. Men uden et lig som bevis havde forsikringsselskabet imidlertid ikke travlt med at udbetale beløbet. Dana Jaffe måtte vente de lovbestemte fem år, indtil hendes forsvundne mand kunne erklæres død. Blot to måneder før Wendell Jaffe blev observeret i baren i den støvede udørk, havde California Fidelity endelig udbetalt hele beløbet. De ønskede nu for enhver pris at få sandheden på bordet. Og var villige til at ansætte Kinsey Millhone til at grave den op. Som Kinsey graver dybere ind i mysteriet omkring Wendell Jaffe og hans pseudo-selvmord, opdager hun, at hun også udforsker sin egen fortid. Hun opdager også, at i familierelaterede sager – som i kriminelle sager – er det bedst at udvise forsigtighed i sin dom over andre. "J for justits" er Kinsey Millhones tiende udflugt ind i de mørke steder i hjertet, hvor bedrag er styrende, og mord alt for ofte er resultatet. Sue Grafton (f. 1940) er en amerikansk bestsellerforfatter, og hendes bøger er udgivet på 26 sprog. Hun er især kendt for alfabet-serien om privatdetektiven Kinsey Millhone.

Entrepreneurship, long neglected by economists and management scholars, has made a dramatic comeback in the last two decades, not only among academic economists and management scholars, but also among policymakers, educators and practitioners. Likewise, the economic theory of the firm, building on Ronald Coase's (1937) seminal analysis, has become an increasingly important field in economics and management. Despite this resurgence, there is still little connection between the entrepreneurship literature and the literature on the firm, both in academia and in management practice. This book fills this gap by proposing and developing an entrepreneurial theory of the firm that focuses on the connections between entrepreneurship and management. Drawing on insights from Austrian economics, it describes entrepreneurship as judgmental decision made under uncertainty, showing how judgment is the driving force of the market economy and the key to understanding firm performance and organization.
