Edited by Mylan Engel Jr. and Gary Lynn Comstock, this book employs different ethical lenses, including classical deontology, libertarianism, commonsense morality, virtue ethics, utilitarianism, and the capabilities approach, to explore the philosophical basis for the strong animal rights view, which holds that animals have moral rights equal in strength to the rights of humans, while also addressing what are undoubtedly the most serious challenges to the strong animal rights stance, inclu...

"Sustainability" is more than the latest "green" buzzword. It represents a new way of viewing the interactions of human society and the natural world. Sustainability in America's Cities highlights how America's largest cities are acting to develop sustainable solutions to conflicts between development and environment.As sustainability rises to the top of public policy agendas in American cities, it is also emerging as a new discipline in colleges and universities. Specifically desi...

Reviews the impact of climate change on the increasing threat of biotic and abiotic stresses to the turfgrass industry, as well as the challenge of treating diseased turf in the face of fungicide resistanceConsiders the development of alternative, more sustainable management practices that utilise and/or optimise fewer agricultural outputs, such as fertilisers, pesticides and fuel to power agricultural machineryProvides a selection of case studies that detail the ...

In some dark corner of the universe, eight human brains are salvaged from the ruins of a broken starship, their last memories absorbed into a vast alien intellect. In their final moments, these humans were dreaming.Five of them were imagining new Science Fiction Horror stories, two of them were creating art, and one of them was somehow astral projecting, nudging each of these twisted visions toward a shared goal.The result of this merging of human minds is Macabre Multivers...
