This book is based upon papers presented at the 10th Annual
Conference of the Tax Research Network held at the University of
Birmingham, United Kingdom, in September 2000. The book covers four
discrete areas namely compliance, e-commerce and taxation,
international taxation and taxation within the European Union, and
value added tax, and focuses within those areas on issues of
topical and continuing interest. In an introductory chapter, the
editors provide an overview of the subject matter of each of the
substantive chapters (of which there are eleven). They conclude by
seeking to extrapolate from those chapters, notwithstanding their
diversity, various matters of wider and contemporary import to
taxation. The treatment of the material in this book by scholars
from various academic disciplines and with differing geographical
perspectives also gives distinct and instructive insights into
widely recognised and enduring taxation problems within the
above-mentioned subject areas. Further, an appreciation and
understanding of the multi-faceted approaches which may be adopted
for problem solving, and which are evident in this book, can only
enhance the prospects of the ultimate resolution of these problems.

In 1938 a knockabout 11-year-old kid from Marrickville, Sydney, is
suddenly confronted by mortality. His mother dies. His father has
little time for him and at 14 he leaves school to learn a trade. In
2016 that same boy is a multi-millionaire. He owns - and runs - the
Australian Development Corporation, Sydney City Marine, a host of
associated companies and countless office and housing blocks. He is
also one of the world's most successful sailors, having won
Sydney-Hobart races in his Ragamuffin yachts and competed eight
times for Australia in the Admiral's Cup. He jointly holds the
record for the most America's Cup campaigns - all self-funded and
managed personally. He is Syd Fischer, the Ragamuffin man, and he's
known as perhaps the toughest and most uncompromising Australian
businessman and sportsman of the past half century. This is the
story of Fischer's remarkable life, and of his unrelenting quest to
win the Sydney-Hobart Yacht Race one more time. 'It's as if Syd has
suddenly decided that it's time to shrug off his lifelong
reluctance to talk about himself and let us all now see what really
makes him tick.'- Sir James Hardy
The numbers of unmarried cohabiting couples continue to increase,
with the result that the law and practice relating to this area
continues to grow insignificance for family and private client
lawyers. This new edition of Cohabitation: Law Practice and
Precedents has been extensively revised to take account of all
procedural developments, as well as analysis of significant
case-law. Whether preparing a cohabitation contract or pre-nuptial
agreement, drafting wills for cohabiting couples, advising on
rights on the breakdown of a relationship or the death of a
partner, or applying for a personal protection order or a parental
responsibility agreement, practitioners will find authoritative
analysis of the applicable law and expert guidance on procedural
issues. Cohabitation: Law, Practice and Precedents is the only work
on the subject to provide commentary, checklists, procedural guides
and precedents in a single volume making it an invaluable aid to
all practitioners advising unmarried couples.

Through an analysis of literary sources, the book explores the
broad range of attitudes towards animals and the natural world
current in Western Europe during the later middle ages. Because
animals are neither wholly similar to, nor entirely different from,
human beings, they have provided men and women with an endlessly
fruitful point of departure from which to explore what it means to
be human. The way in which human identity is inextricably bound up
with the animal kingdom is particularly evident in medieval
hagiography and romance (arguably the two most popular and
prestigious genres of medieval literature), where the holiness
ofsaints and the heroism of knights is frequently revealed through
their miraculous encounters with wild beasts. Through an analysis
of these literary sources, the book explores the broad range of
attitudes towards animals and the natural world that were current
in western Europe during the later middle ages. It argues that
through their depictions of animals, medieval writers were not only
able to reflect upon their own humanity, but were also able to
explore the meaning of more abstract values and ideas (such as
civility, sanctity and nobility) that were central to the culture
of the time. Dr DAVID SALTER is a Lecturer in English at the
University of Edinburgh.
The Media We Deserve is about the major entities of the Australian
media, their roles and influence in our lives, and the issues of
journalistic practice that shape their content. The nation is
fortunate to have media that are generally competent and
occasionally very good indeed. But the print and broadcast material
that we consume every day can also be perverse, shallow, illogical,
infuriatingly opportunistic, crassly commercial, insufferably
pretentious and rarely witty. David Salter tries to untangle and
make sense of the contradictions.
Buried in the depths of the Ohio Penitentiary, the cruellest prison
in American history, an inmate known as "The Smilemaker" keeps his
brothers' spirits buoyant and their hopes of survival alive with
stories of love and sacrifice amongst the tenements and theatres of
Manhattan. Leaping from the shadows bursts a throng of colourful
characters including a delirious pair of tap-dancing lovers, a
hitman disguised as Santa Claus and a Central Park tramp who, try
as he might, can't get himself arrested. From burlesque to ragtime,
from Hell's Kitchen to Fifth Avenue, this collection of sharp,
witty and highly moving stories will be sure to make you smile.
"Broadway in the Shadows" is a co-production of Word Of Mouth
Theatre Company, Treatment Theatre, UK and Grand Theatre de
Luxembourg. It opens at the Grand Theatre de Luxembourg in
September 2006, and transfers to the Arcola, London in October.
