What is the ultimate task of law? This deceptively simple question guides this volume towards a radically original philosophical interpretation of law and justice. Weaving together the philosophical, jurisprudential and ethical problems suggested by five general terms - thinking, human suffering, legal meaning, time and tragedy - the book places the idea of law's ultimate task in the context of what actually happens when people seek to do justice and enforce legal rights in a world that is inflected by the desperation and suffering of the many. It traces the rule of law all the way down to its most fundamental level: the existence of universal human suffering and how it is that law-doers inflict or tolerate that suffering.

An understanding of psychology—specifically the psychology behind how users behave and interact with digital interfaces—is perhaps the single most valuable nondesign skill a designer can have. The most elegant design can fail if it forces users to conform to the design rather than working within the "blueprint" of how humans perceive and process the world around them. This practical guide explains how you can apply key principles in psychology to build products and experiences that are more intuitive and human-centered. Author Jon Yablonski deconstructs familiar apps and experiences to provide clear examples of how UX designers can build experiences that adapt to how users perceive and process digital interfaces. You’ll learn: How aesthetically pleasing design creates positive responses The principles from psychology most useful for designers How these psychology principles relate to UX heuristics Predictive models including Fitts’s law, Jakob’s law, and Hick’s law Ethical implications of using psychology in design A framework for applying these principles

This November 1978 symposium was convened by the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration's Office of Criminal Justice Education and Training in Dallas, Texas, to explore the role of education and training in human resources development. The symposium considered criminal justice manpower needs, the development of comprehensive manpower planning methodologies, and police officer standards and training. Participants looked at job analysis procedures, job task analysis applications, an occupational research project of the U.S. Air Force, a task analysis of the special agent job by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, basic training development in Texas, and entry-level police selection and test validation in Washington. Participants also focused on a statewide job analysis of the police patrol officer position in Michigan, job task analysis of Minnesota patrol officers, Wisconsin's law enforcement standards for conducting job analysis, job analysis of entry-level police officers in Georgia and California, historical background of police training in New York, and essential elements in a comprehensive human resources program for criminal justice jobs.
