...work has a similar appeal as seeing old movies over and over again. You go to quell your nostalgic urges, to see your time - honored favorites, whether it be the joy of watching Dorothy prance down the Yellow Brick Road for the umpteenth time or the sight of a particular Monet haystack. For the most part, however, new ideas are rarely perceived; you end up looking for your special favorites and tend to ignore the rest. Whatever insights are made usually concern the philosophy of nostalgia rather than revelations about the subject concerned. Such would be the case...

...light in them. He exhibits the same fascination Evans does for the seemingly insignificant. Christenberry also becomes absorbed in Evans' attraction for objects; the descendance is conspicuous in his straight - on portraits of country buildings and graveyards. The examination of some of the other photographers displayed, however, in particular Arbus, Friedlander, Levitt and Frank, requires a more involved exploration of the man and the intricacies...

This technique has enormous implications for both laboratory research and animal husbandry. A particular strain of mouse needed for experiments could be duplicated in great numbers, as could prize dairy cows, horses, sheep and pigs. But cloning human beings by the same procedure is another story. Homo sapiens is a mongrel breed. Unlike domesticated or laboratory animals, man has not had harmful and even lethal genes bred out of him. These genes remain in humans, many as recessives, suppressed by dominant normal genes. If humans could be cloned by Markert's method, these recessive genes could come...
