Many people think human reproductive cloning should be a crime-some states have even outlawed it and Congress is working to enact a national ban. However, if reproductive cloning soon becomes a reality, it will be impossible to prevent infertile couples and others from choosing the technology, even if they have to break the law. While most books on cloning cover the advantages and disadvantages of cloning technology, Illegal Beings describes the pros and cons of laws against human reproductive cloning. Kerry Lynn Macintosh, an attorney with expertise in the area of law and technology, argues t

Opposition to atheism flourished in the seventeenth century, and famed scientist-philosopher Robert Boyle (1627?91) was so opposed to it that he had planned throughout his life to publish a work on his various objections, a project that never came to fruition. Despite this, a great deal of his thought on atheism still exists within the manuscripts he left behind after his death.With Boyle on Atheism, J.J. MacIntosh has culled the Boyle manuscripts held at the Royal Society Library in London and transcribed the portions that relate to atheism, arranging them in the order Boyle appears to have i

Startling wooden figures that have been carved with a chainsaw can be seen around the country at fairs, in yards, and on ESPN’s logger competitions. This is the first book that explains all of the elements of the chainsaw carving art: techniques, equipment, safety precautions, and aesthetic considerations. Step-by-step tutorials show how the Blue Heron garden sculpture and the popular Black Bear are carved. Dozens of project ideas, accompanied by hundreds of color photos of spectacular carvings, are also included. Anyone who has ever handled a chainsaw will find this book irresistible.

In the business world, recent years have seen a growing acknowledgement of the value of intangible assets rather than physical assets. This has precipitated a crisis in the accounting industry: the accounting representations relied upon for years can no longer be taken for granted. Here, Norman Macintosh argues that we now need to understand accounting in a different manner. Offering several different ways of looking at accounting and accountants, he draws upon the work of eminent thinkers such as Barthes, Baudrillard, Derrida, Foucault, Lyotard and Bahktin. In doing this, he develops revolut

Almost half the population of Toronto-immigrants and newcomers from elsewhere in Canada-has no cultural memory of our city’s beginnings. In a bid to fill this gap, Earliest Toronto tells the city’s story up to the War of 1812 and its aftermath. Beginning with the dramatic conflicts in the aboriginal communities around Lake Ontario before the coming of the Europeans in the early seventeenth century, followed by two centuries of French exploration and settlement, the city’s early history will surprise many Torontonians. Simcoe, the founder of the village of York in 1793
