Julius Chambers

A Life in the Legal Struggle for Civil Rights

Born in the hamlet of Mount Gilead, North Carolina, Julius Chambers (1936–2013) escaped the fetters of the Jim Crow South to emerge in the 1960s and 1970s as the nation's leading African American civil rights attorney. Following passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Chambers worked to advance the NAACP Legal Defense Fund's strategic litigation campaign for civil rights, ultimately winning landmark school and employment desegregation cases at the U.S. Supreme Court. Undaunted by the dynamiting of his home and the arson that destroyed the offices of his small integrated law practice, Chambers pushed federal civil rights law to its highwater mark. In this biography, Richard A. Rosen and Joseph Mosnier connect the details of Chambers's life to the wider struggle to secure racial equality through the development of modern civil rights law. Tracing his path from a dilapidated black elementary school to counsel's lectern at the Supreme Court and beyond, they reveal Chambers's singular influence on the evolution of federal civil rights law after 1964.

The Encyclopedia of Taxation & Tax Policy

From adjusted gross income to zoning and property taxes, the revised edition of The Encyclopedia of Taxation and Tax Policy offers the best and most complete guide to taxes and tax related issues. More than 150 tax practitioners and administrators, policymakers, and academics contributed to this unique and authoritative reference. The Encyclopedia examines virtually all tax instruments used by governments (individual income, corporate income, sales and value-added, property, estate and gift, franchise, poll, and many variants of these taxes), as well as characteristics of a good tax system, budgetary issues, and many current federal, state, local, and international tax policy issues. The new edition is completely revised, with 40 new topics and 200 articles revised to reflect six years of legislative changes. Each essay provides the generalist with a quick and reliable introduction to many topics but also gives tax specialists the benefit of the best thinking of other experts in a manner that makes the complex understandable. Reference lists point the reader to additional sources of information for each topic. The first edition was selected as an Outstanding Academic Book of the Year by Choice magazine

It is evident, however, that the long-run implications of amnesties are ambiguous.
The potential gain from identifying past evaders and improving their compliance
in the long run must be weighed against three factors that might reduce
compliance of others in the long run. First, some complying taxpayers might
decide to not pay taxes fully in the future and to wait for an amnesty. To mitigate
against this potential problem, states holding amnesties have often emphasized
the unique, ...

Making the Connection Between Brain and Behavior

Coping with Parkinson's Disease

Fully Revised and Updated The only complete and up-to-date book addressing the most common behavioral symptoms of Parkinsonís Disease (PD), including depression, anxiety, hallucinations, disrupted sleep, and compulsive behavior. When people think about PD they usually picture tremor, shuffling, and other physical changes. But as many as 90% of all Parkinsonís patients also live with behavioral symptoms that few families are prepared to handle. In this fully revised and updated edition of Making the Connection Between Brain and Behavior, Dr. Joseph H. Friedman, a leading expert in PD, explains the most common behavioral issues in down-to-earth, straightforward language, offers the most current research on available therapies and medications, and provides guidance on ways to communicate with your healthcare team for effective treatment. Now, fully updated and revised throughout and including three new chapters and two new appendices, Making the Connection Between Brain and Behavior includes even more information on a variety of treatment options, including Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT). It is an essential resource for every person with PD and his or her family.

17. Misperception. The behavioral topics I addressed earlier in the book are
different in nature than the topics addressed here. The other chapters focus on
emotionally based issues, whereas this chapter is aimed at describing some of
the ways in which Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, as the result of their
disorder, may see the world differently than the rest of us in a “real-world” fashion.
