From Eco-cities to Living Machines presents the ecologically-based working designs and prototypes of biologist John Todd and writer and environmental activist Nancy Todd. Since 1969 with the founding of New Alchemy Institute on Cape Cod, the Todds have become known world-wide for their leadership in the restoration of pure water, bioremediation of wild aquatic environments, food production, and urban design. In this new book, the Todds further develop the idea of Eco-cities, designs for integrating agriculture and flowing pure water into green urban settings and introduce Living Machines, a fa

Comics are typically thought of as "low" art. While the latest "Garfield" or "Boondocks" Sunday strip might be a common topic around the breakfast table or water cooler, it is rarely considered material for more serious consideration. Strips, Toons, and Bluesies gives comics the serious attention they deserve. Rather than focusing on the punch lines, this book celebrates the rich visual and verbal pictures comics have brought to both mass and marginalized audiences. It shows how these works from fifteenth-century woodcuts to Depression-era bluesies to contemporary zines make passionate state

May offers a clear and cogent response to the question which other philosophers have most often found troubling in Foucault’s work: how can Foucault’s genealogies of power/knowledge in the human sciences be justified?-Joseph Rouse, Wesleyan University"In spite of the immense industry of Foucault scholarship, Todd May has managed to write a very trim study that shows how Foucault avoids certain self-referential paradoxes almost always brought against him: in particular, the perils of relativism and the normalization of discourse. The result is notably uncluttered."-Joseph Margoli

Other books have tried to explain Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995), one of the twentieth century’s most important and elusive thinkers, in general terms. However, Todd May organizes his introduction around a central question at the heart of Deleuze’s philosophy: How might we live? He demonstrates how Deleuze offers a view of the cosmos as a living entity that provides ways of conducting our lives that we may not have even dreamed of.

French philosophy since World War II has been preoccupied with the issue of difference. The author considers that the most prominent thinkers have endorsed positions which are incoherent or implausible. Here he reconceives difference by way of "contingent holism".
