Spencer L. Simons. Texas legal
research. Rev. Printing. Carolina Academic Press, 2012. KFT1275.S56 2012 Authored by Professor Spencer
Simons, Texas Legal Research is a
practical and process-oriented guide to the skills and resources necessary to
research Texas law. Texas Legal
Research guides the reader from an overview of the legal research process
and effective search techniques to in-depth discussions of the materials and
mechanics of Texas legal research. Chapters are devoted to the resources and
techniques of constitutional research, case law research, and statutory
research. The historical and governmental roots of Texas legal resources are
traced for each type of primary law, and chapters on legislative history
research and administrative agency research explore these more advanced
topics in detail. The Revised Printing of Texas
Legal Research includes updates regarding the Texas codification project,
revised Texas Supreme Court rules regarding unpublished opinions, changed
citation rules under the 18th edition of The Greenbook: Texas Rules
of Form, and updated information about online legal information sources. |

organizational wrongdoing: a critical analysis of theories of misconduct in
and by organizations. Oxford University Press, 2012. HV6768.P35 2012 Instances of wrongdoing in and by organizations are prevalent in modern

and socially irresponsible behavior? Normal

theory and research on organizational wrongdoing. By using rich case study
material, it illuminates different perspectives on wrongdoing, potential
explanations of wrongdoing, and policy suggestions for the reduction of
wrongdoing. |
