Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.Abstract Scholars have tended to interpret Thomas Nettleton's bestselling Virtue and Happiness (1729) as an Epicurean work.

Reviewing fast or slow: A theory of summary reversal in the judicial hierarchy
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Appellate courts with discretionary dockets have multiple ways to review lower courts. We develop a formal model that evaluates the trade‐offs between “full review”—which features full briefing, oral arguments, and signed opinions—versus “quick review,” where a higher court can summarily reverse a lower court. We show that having the option of
