Take a road trip through deep time and California history, with a friendly expert geologist at the wheel.From its epic earthquakes to its famed epithet "the Golden State," California as we know it would not exist without geology. Gary L. Prost, an expert geologist born and raised in California, embarked on a quest to better understand the state's rocky history. His road trips have culminated in Rocks and Riches, an accessible and entertaining look at the land that has shaped the lives of all Californians. With humor and abiding curiosity, Prost examines the workings of deep time, the fascinating and troubled legacies of the Gold Rush, and the ways geology continues to influence life in California today. Visiting 55 stops of geologic interest, he traverses the Marin and Sonoma coasts, the Central Valley, the Sierra Foothills, Yosemite, and the Basin and Range country, ending with an extended journey through Death Valley to meditate on the awe-inspiring intensity of California's deserts. Including dozens of illustrations and road maps, as well as guidance for fellow travelers, Rocks and Riches is both a practical handbook and an invitation to see California's landscapes with wonder.

Contrary to a series of controversial CJEU rulings, the book demonstrates that granting fundamental rights status to business freedoms is not inherently deregulatory.

This book provides a critical assessment of how judges reason in the adjudication of historical injustices.

Modernes Wirtschaften ist durch Arbeitsteilung gekennzeichnet. Private Akteure arbeiten über die Grenzen bilateraler Leistungsbeziehungen zusammen, um Transaktionen erfolgreich abzuwickeln. Dies steht in Kontrast zu dem Wirtschaftsentwurf des Bürgerlichen Gesetzbuches. Er fußt auf dem im 19. Jahrhundert entwickelten Leitbild des zweiseitigen Austauschvertrags. Sarah Legner entwirft den mehrseitigen Austauschvertrag als Gestaltungsinstrument für Leistungsgeflechte. Sie analysiert seine allgemeinen Strukturen im nationalen, europäischen und internationalen Recht und schlägt Vorschriften eines Rechts mehrseitiger Schuldverhältnisse aus Verträgen vor. Ferner wird der mehrseitige Kooperationsvertrag als besonderer Typ eines mehrseitigen Austauschvertrags an der Schnittstelle von Austausch- und Gesellschaftsvertrag entwickelt. Die Arbeit wurde mit dem Wissenschaftspreis der Werner und Erika Messmer-Stiftung ausgezeichnet.
