Avoiding Tax Malpractice

By: Robert Feinschreiber,Margaret Kent

CCH's new Avoiding Tax Malpractice is not only a very important issue spotter and prevention guide for tax professionals, but is also very interesting reading. This insightful resource not only tells the reader how to avoid and limit tax malpractice problems, but it also educates the reader on a wide range of actual situations that have led to problems in the past. As noted authors Robert Feinschreiber and Margaret Kent reveal, knowing how to avoid tax malpractice is not necessarily an intuitive exercise on the part of practitioners, and some of the true causes for malpractice litigation will surprise many readers.

Community Action and Climate Change

By: Jennifer Kent

Community Action and Climate Change

By: Jennifer Kent

The failure of recent international negotiations to progress global action on climate change has shifted attention to the emergence of grassroots sustainability initiatives. These civil society networks display the potential to implement social innovation and change processes from the ‘bottom up’. Recent scholarship has sought to theorise grassroots community-based low carbon practices in terms of their sustainability transition potential. However there are few empirical examples that demonstrate the factors for success of community-based social innovations in achieving more widespread adoption outside of their local, sustainability ‘niche’. The book seeks to address two significant gaps related to grassroots climate action: firstly the continuing dominance of the individualisation of responsibility for climate change action which presupposes that individuals hold both the ability and desire to shift their behaviours and lifestyle choices to align with a low carbon future. Secondly, the potential for community-based collectives to influence mainstream climate change governance, an area significantly under researched. Drawing on empirical research into Australian Climate Action Groups (CAGs) and related international research, the book argues that grassroots community-based collective action on climate change holds the key to broader social change. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of climate change, citizen participation, environmental sociology and sustainable development.

Controversial Issues In Environmental Policy

By: Kent E. Portney

Most controversies in environmental policy are rooted in clashes of values involving science and technology versus humanism, economic efficiency versus humanism, the role of nature in society and the role of government in society. The author discusses how America makes environmental policy - at the Federal and State levels as well as their enforcement agencies designed to protect and regulate at the same time. Portney examines legislation, public opinion, implementation or non-implementation relative to the debates over water, air and soil management.

Global Capitalism

The New Leviathan

By: Robert J. S. Ross,Kent C. Trachte

How have global markets and global manufacturing changed the balance of social, economic and political power? With this volume Ross and Trachte challenge existing political-economic theory. In concise terms they show how traditional theories of monopoly capitalism and world systems are not well-suited to analyze the emergence of global capitalism. This book, in a series of case studies of U.S. metropolitan areas, examines the dramatic transformation of the world economy in the last two decades. The book's last section examines political strategy and the political theory implied by the heightened power of capital.

Case for Interferon

How a 1980s Cancer Drug Might Be the Wonder Therapy for the Twenty-First Century

By: Joseph Cummins,Kent Heckenlively

Touted as a potential breakthrough cancer therapy in the 1980s by the scientific community and publications such as TIME and Newsweek magazine, the reputation of interferon has not lived up to its early promise. Interferons are small proteins with anti-viral and anti-cancer effects, which have the power to modulate the functioning of the immune system. But Dr. Joseph Cummins, an early interferon pioneer, holder of sixteen US medical patents, author of more than sixty scientific publications, as well as having taught veterinary medicine at the University of Missouri, University of Illinois, and Texas A & M University, argues that the current thinking on interferon is fundamentally flawed. Interferon is created in small quantities in the body in response to infection, and seems to work best at these low dosages. However, the public health cowboys, working under the assumption that anything good in tiny amounts must be better in massive amounts, pursued exactly the wrong strategy. High-dose interferon does not work in the body and may even cause problems. The first remarkable results for interferon and the flu were reported by the Soviets in the 1970s, but Western medicine discounted these findings because they believed the dosages were so low they couldn’t possibly be effective. In the 1980s, when interferon was expensive to produce and only small quantities could be manufactured, the results were remarkable. Dr. Cummins was an early pioneer of low-dose interferon, and his remarkable findings among animals led to collaborations with medical doctors for human trials, even going so far as Africa at the height of the HIV-AIDS epidemic. Cummins reviews the evidence for this inexpensive, safe treatment and makes an eloquent argument for medical science to take another look at interferon to tackle today’s most challenging health conditions, including COVID-19.

In My Fashion

A Memoir

By: Sol Kent

In My Fashion will delight those intrigued by the world of high fashion and its history. From the heady days in Paris at Christian Dior's "New Look" collection, to the shows, parties, and lifestyles of such luminaries as Cristobal Balenciaga, Coco Chanel, Norman Norell, Emilio Pucci, Hubert de Givenchy, and Bill Blass, the reader witnesses the glamour, the glitz, and often the frenzy of this world of flair, imagination, and force of personality. In this book Kent also provides a unique education in the production of fashion shows, which he elevated to an art form. Through Kents vision, fashion becomes theater. Two actual show scripts are included in this book. With an artists eye and passion, he reminds the reader that, as women have always known, memories are often indelibly attached to ones favorite clothes. This articulate and witty distillation is an exquisite pleasure for the elegant Mr. Kents many admirers, and a treat for anyone who is interested in the history of our time, in the seeds of creativity, and in the power of style.

Parties in Transition

By: Warren Miller,M. Kent Jennings

Every four years, the drama of presidential selection inspires a reassessment of our political parties. Central to this assessment are the delegates who gather at Democratic and Republican national conventions. Parties in Transition presents a richly modulated body of data of the changing attitudes and behaviors of these delegates—their ideologies and loyalties, their recruitment into presidential politics, their persistence in or disengagement from it. Covering three recent sets of conventions and involving over five thousand delegates, this comprehensive study makes an essential contribution to our understanding of American party politics. "Richer and more authoritative than most of the best works in the field." —Election Politics "A most important study of change in the American political scene....Richly deserves to be read." —John H. Kessel, Ohio State University "[A] shrewd and sophisticated analysis....Both scholars and practitioners should read this book and ponder it." —Austin Ranney, University of California, Berkeley

The Goddess and the Shaman

The Art & Science of Magical Healing

By: J. A. Kent

Explore the resurgence of magical and shamanic healing in the world today. Recovering from disease, pain, and mental illness often means addressing otherworldly causes such as soul loss, soul fragmentation, or invasive spirits. Interviewing modern shamanic practitioners and sharing her own experiences as a psychotherapist and healer, author J. A. Kent, PhD, shows how ritual practice and mystical experience can be used as tools to foster profound spiritual and psychological growth. Through exploration of otherworldly phenomena, the Western mystery traditions, and the author’s psychotherapy case studies, this book shows how the Goddess represents the numinous reality of the universe while the Shaman represents the archetypal figure that can access the other side to bring forth knowledge and healing.
