View Rights PortalLindbak + Lindbak is a fresh new Nordic publishing house adding an innovative twist to popular genres like crime, romance & children's books.
View Rights PortalWomen before the court offers an innovative, comparative approach to the study of women's legal rights during a formative period of Anglo-American history. It traces how colonists transplanted English legal institutions to America, examines the remarkable depth of women's legal knowledge and shows how the law increasingly undermined patriarchal relationships between parents and children, masters and servants, husbands and wives. The book will be of interest to scholars of Britain and colonial America, and to laypeople interested in how women in the past navigated and negotiated the structures of authority that governed them. It is packed with fascinating stories that women related to the courts in cases ranging from murder and abuse to debt and estate litigation. Ultimately, it makes a remarkable contribution to our understandings of law, power and gender in the early modern world.
Von klein auf waren Alans beste Freunde ein Junge namens Christopher und die Zahlen. Als Christopher starb, war die Mathematik Alans Trost. Er entwickelte Schachprogramme und schaffte es, komplizierte Codes zu knacken, die niemand zuvor entschlüsselt hatte. Seine Beiträge machten später die Erfindung des Computers möglich. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Malerin, Sänger oder Architektin, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.
