This book examines the use and construction of the verb in the speech of Nigerian university graduates (NUGs), in both Standard English (StdE) and Nigerian Pidgin English (NPE).

The structure as well as the use of the verb phrases (VP) used by NUGs is almost identical to the...

The Decline of British Radicalism, 1847-1860
ISBN: 9780198204824 / Twarda / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is an important study of British radicalism in the years between the collapse of Chartism in 1848 and the rise of Gladstonian liberalism in the 1860s. Taylor begins by examining the rise of radicalism in the 1830s and 1840s, arguing that it was the 1832 Reform Act which invigorated radicalism, by enlarging the powers of Parliament and increasing the need for independent MPs. Set against the backdrop of revolution and reaction in Europe, the Crimean War, and the Indian Mutiny, this wide-ranging book looks at how and why radicalism lost its hold on British politics.

The Settlement of Disputes in International Law: Institutions and Procedures
ISBN: 9780198256694 / Twarda / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For many years it was said that the weakness of international law was the lack of a system for the enforcement of legal obligations. Commentators pointed to the paucity of cases in the International Court and the unwillingness of States to undertake binding obligations to settle their disputes. This position has now changed beyond recognition. The number of international tribunals has increased and many of them, such as ICSID and the International Court of Justice, are busier than at any time in their history. Increasingly, the classical procedures of diplomatic protection are circumvented as...

The History of the University of Oxford: Volume VIII: The Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9780198229742 / Twarda / 938 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume, the eighth in The History of the University of Oxford, shows how one of the world's major universities has responded to the formidable challenges offered by the twentieth century. Because Oxford's response has not taken a revolutionary or dramatic form, outside observers have not always appreciated the scale of its transformation. Here full attention is given to the forces for change: the rapid growth in provision for the natural and social sciences; the advance of professionalism in scholarship, sport, and cultural achievement; the diffusion of international influences through...
