Metabolic encephalopathies, especially hepatic and renal, are the most common causes of bilateral asterixis. Those caused specifically by hepatic failure are known as liver (or hepatic) flap. Other causes of asterixis include cardiac and respiratory disease, electrolyte abnormalities and drug intoxication.
Law and Economics. The law and economics movement applies economic theory and method to the practice of law. It asserts that the tools of economic reasoning offer the best possibility for justified and consistent legal practice. It is arguably one of the dominant theories of jurisprudence.
One of the most fundamental building blocks of economics is the law of demand. Every time you pull out your pocketbook to purchase something, the law of demand is at work. The better you understand the law of demand, the better you will understand why you pay different prices for different goods.
