This 90 minutes lecture to be delivered via telelink addresses a class of mit undergraduates unrolled in Engineering Design and Rapid prototyping Course. The students have been introduced to the basic optimization concepts of design variables design space, objective function, constraints and numerical search methods. Building on this elementary basis, the purpose of the lecture is to make the students aware of a reaud range of theoretical and practical issues that arise when optimization is applied in real-life engineering. To that end a gamut of topics is presented with emphasis on the qualitative exposition rather than in-depth mathematics. The topics include

Professor Stephen Waddams'new book emphasizes the many dimensions of private law and seeks to prove the inadequacy of simple explanations or categorizations of this law. Waddams distrusts the divisions between public and private law, between property and obligations, and within obligations

Corporate law is a field that underwent as thorough a revolution in the 1980s as can be imagined, in scholarship and practice, methodological and organizational, in which finance and the economic theory of the firm were used to inform the field. The timing of this revolution was not a fortuitous occurrence: it followed a revolution in corporate finance and
