Jared Correia. Twitter in one hour for lawyers. American Bar Association, 2012. KF320.I57C67 2012 Twitter in One Hour for Lawyers will demystify one of the most important social-media platforms of our time and teach you to tweet like an expert. In just one hour, readers will learn to create a Twitter account, read and write tweets, and gain followers. In addition, readers will learn to integrate Twitter into their firm's marketing plan, cross-post tweets with other social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn, and understand the relevant ethics, privacy, and security concerns. Victor Streib. Death Penalty in a Nutshell. 4th ed. West, 2013. KF9227.C2S772 2013 Now in its fourth edition, Death Penalty in a Nutshell presents the substantive and procedural law of capital cases, along with its relevant history, jurisprudence and constitutional applications. The book also addresses international issues, the complex role of defense counsel, the risk of systemic bias, and the potential execution of innocent defendants. This new edition provides an analysis of emerging trends in the death penalty, including that fewer states have the death penalty on their books, fewer capital offenders are being sentenced to death, and fewer yet are being executed. |
