Breakthrough on the New Skis by Lito Tejada-Flores

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this concise exposition and analysis of the essential elements of law with regard to family relations, marital property, and succession to estates in Denmark covers the legal rules and customs pertaining to the intertwined civic status of persons, the family, and property.

After an informative general introduction, the book proceeds to an in-depth discussion of the sources and instruments of family and succession law, the authorities that adjudicate and administer the laws, and issues surrounding the person as a legal entity and the legal disposition of property among family members. Such matters as nationality, domicile, and residence; marriage, divorce, and cohabitation; adoption and guardianship; succession and inter vivos arrangements; and the acquisition and administration of estates are all treated to a degree of depth that will prove useful in nearly any situation likely to arise in legal practice.

The book is primarily designed to assist lawyers who find themselves having to apply rules of international private law or otherwise handling cases connected with Denmark. It will also be of great value to students and practitioners as a quick guide and easy-to-use practical resource in the field, and especially to academicians and researchers engaged in comparative studies by providing the necessary, basic material of family and succession law.

He has shared his passion for mountain adventure in a series of books, on wilderness skiing, kayaking and downhill skiing, and in documentary films. His instructional ski books and videos are well known. But he has also written books on backcountry ski touring and whitewater kayaking. And his documentary film on the ascent of Mount Fitz Roy won the Grand Prize at the International Mountain and Exploration Film Fetival in Trento Italy. A dedicated, passionate ski instructor for over 30 years, Lito is a mountain-sports and travel writer by profession, a poet by avocation, a graphic designer, web designer, photo editor and documentary filmmaker for the hell of it, and a publisher quite by accident.

Today, Lito and Linde spend part of each year in Patagonia and the other part in the Colorado Rockies.
