August is almost over, and with it, summer is coming to an end. Things are busy at the offices of University of Toronto Press; new titles are being released every week and conference season is fast approaching.

UTP wishes to congratulate Robert Leckey on winning the 2010 Canada Prize from the International Academy of Comparative Law.

This past November, the 24th to be exact, marked the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. Academics celebrated this milestone with conferences held in major and lesser cities around the world but the general public had their fun too as specials on television and the radio sought to remind viewers and listeners of the vast importance of the Origin and the man who spent so many years researching, writing, and agonizing over what he called the "mystery of mysteries," the origin of species and their histories.

University of Toronto Press acknowledges the financial support for its publishing activities of the Government of Canada through the Canada Book Fund and also acknowledges the financial support of the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council.
