Geography & the EnvironmentNovember 20131 Angel Square
The Co-operative Group's new head office
by Len Grant
This book charts the building of 1 Angel Square, the remarkable new head office for The Co-operative Group in Manchester's new NOMA district. Combining text and photographs to illustrate the building from commissioning to completion, Len Grant has interviewed the whole project team - clients, architects, engineers, project managers and builders - and has had unreserved access to document the creation of this already award-winning structure. The design of 1 Angel Square by the architects 3DReid, is currently the UK's highest BREEAM (Building Research Establishment's Environmental Assessment Method) rated office building to date, and it is set to be one of the most sustainable buildings in Europe. 1 Angel Square, the book, is an intimate record of this fascinating building. Some of the impressive facts include: 3,157 internal and external window panels make up the façade; there are 10,500 data and power outlets; it sits on 539 foundation piles, with an average depth of 18 metres below ground; and there are approximately 22km of power cables. This book will be required reading for students of architecture and construction, sustainability studies and urban planning, and for those with an interest in the history of one of the world's great businesses. ;

Business, Economics & LawJanuary 2026Sovereignty disputes and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea
A public order perspective
by Thomas D. Grant
Because maritime questions are often admixed with territorial sovereignty questions, parties sometimes seek to settle them together. Jurisdiction under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea-UNCLOS-according to the received view does not encompass disputes concerning territorial sovereignty. In this book, international law scholar and practitioner Thomas D. Grant argues that the received view overstates the exclusion of sovereignty disputes. In Coastal State Rights, UNCLOS Annex VII arbitrators overstated the scope of the term 'sovereignty dispute' as well, an error of definition compounded when they ignored evidence probative as to whether a sovereignty dispute exists. Examining UNCLOS, its drafting history, and decades of decided cases, Sovereignty Disputes and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea relates an important problem of international dispute settlement to the public order of which UNCLOS forms part.

September 1976Referenz und Intersubjektivität
Beitrag zur philosophischen Sprachpragmatik
by F. Grant Johnson
Johnson befaßt sich in dieser Arbeit sowohl mit dem philosophischen Problem der Referenz (des Redens über Gegenstände) als auch mit der Struktur der philosophischen Kommunikation über dieses Problem. Er faßt zwei kommunikative Vorgänge, nämlich denjenigen, über den wissenschaftlich kommuniziert wird, in dem Referenz vollzogen wird, und die philosophische Kommunikation über Referenz als zwei zu rekonstruierende Texte auf.
