Bringing together a range of leading private law scholars, this book considers developments in law, policy and practice resulting from, and driven by wider changes in society and the legal system over the last forty years.In reflecting on these developments, the book honours the scholarship of Professor Kenneth McK. Norrie who spent his forty-year academic career expertly navigating this changing world, identifying the legal implications of it and contributing to law reform in several areas of Scots law. One of the unique features of Professor Norrie’s scholarship is its breadth and so, in celebration of this, contributions come from across private law including its interface with public law.Private Law Reform in a Changing World brings together different perspectives on key contemporary issues in private law covering varied and topical areas of law such as abortion, children’s rights, youth justice and child protection, parenthood, adult intimate relationships, delict and succession.

Three words every abuse survivor must hear - God hates abuse.

Have you ever been told, "Be the best Christian you can be- God will change his heart"? Or perhaps, "Perhaps you''re doing something that is making her so angry"? When it comes to dealing with abuse, this is the kind of advice many Christians are given, often by even the most well- intended people helpers.

There''s one core problem with these statements: They''re unbiblical.

Safe Haven is a biblically- based guide to abuse, giving you the tools you need to identify it, respond to it, and heal from it. In this devotional, you''ll learn how:

The Bible teaches you to spot abusers in a variety of relationship typesJesus counsels you to handle abusive peopleThe Word trains you to respond to someone''s attempts to abuse youGod can rebuild you and strengthen your faith in the aftermath of abuse

Safe Haven is a tool suited for any survivor of abuse - whether woman or man. It''s also a resource to aid in recovering from abuse in nearly every context - whether the abuse was perpetrated in a marriage, at the hands of a parent, or by another influential person in your life. If you''ve been crushed, controlled, betrayed, manipulated, or exploited by someone you thought you could trust, this book is for you.
