Is God a Mathematician?

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Nobel Laureate Eugene Wigner once wondered about `the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics` in the formulation of the laws of nature. Is God a Mathematician? investigates why mathematics is as powerful as it is. From ancient times to the present, scientists and philosophers have marveled at how such a seemingly abstract discipline could so perfectly explain the natural world. More than that -- mathematics has often made predictions, for example, about subatomic particles or cosmic phenomena that were unknown at the time, but later were proven to be true. Is mathematics ultimately invented or discovered? If, as Einstein insisted, mathematics is `a product of human thought that is independent of experience,` how can it so accurately describe and even predict the world around us?Mathematicians themselves often insist that their work has no practical effect. The British mathematician G. H. Hardy went so far as to describe his own work this way: `No discovery of mine has made, or is… [detailed...]

Is Human Nature Obsolete?: Genetics, Bioengineering, and the Future of the Human Condition (Basic Bioethics)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: As our scientific and technical abilities expand at breathtaking speeds, concern that modern genetics and bioengineering are leading us to a posthuman future is growing. Is Human Nature Obsolete? poses the overarching question of what it is to be human against the background of these current advances in biotechnology. Its perspective is philosophical and interdisciplinary rather than technical, the focus is on questions of fundamental ontological importance rather than the specifics of medical or scientific practice. The authors -- all distinguished scholars in their fields -- take on questions about technology`s goals and values that are often ignored or sidelined in the face of rapid scientific advances and the highly specialized nature of technical knowledge. The essays included represent a rich variety of thought, ranging from finely nuanced philosophical and theological arguments to historical studies and cultural commentaries. Several explore the historical… [detailed...]

Is It Me or My Meds?: Living with Antidepressants

2007 y.
Publisher: Harvard University Press
Description: This engaging, well-written book begins with a harrowing account of the author`s own struggle to go off his meds. While this is certainly a gripping way to begin the book, it is more important in establishing Karp`s credentials as someone who knows first hand what psychiatric drugs can do. The fifty subjects interviewed for the book range from teenagers to retirees and represent a variety of occupations, from high school and university students to medical doctors. The book is organized loosely around the trajectory those on meds tend to follow: from initial encounter, to enthusiasm and cooperation, to rebellion and finally to acceptance. Karp has a philosophical, almost spiritual take on the relationship between human beings and psychiatric medication: `In contrast to other medications … psychotropic drugs … act on-and perhaps even create-people`s consciousness and, therefore, have profound effects on the nature of their identities.` Though a proponent of antidepressants, Karp`s… [detailed...]

Is Jazz Dead?: Or Has It Moved to a New Address

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIs Jazz Dead? examines the state of jazz in America at the turn of the 21st century. In a recent 10-part documentary on Public Television, Ken Burns spent 8 out of 10 programs on jazz before World War II, only the last 2 shows covered five decades of creative work. Musicians themselves are returning to New Orleans, Swing, and Bebop styles, while the work of the `60s avant-garde and even `70s and `80s jazz-rock is roundly ignored. Meanwhile, global jazz musicians are creating new and exciting music that is just starting to be heard in the United States, offering a viable alternative to the rampant conservatism here. Stuart Nicholson`s thought-provoking book offers an analysis of the American scene, how it came to be so stagnant, and what it can do to create a new level of creativity. This book is bound to be controversial among jazz purists and musicians, it will undoubtedly generate discussion about how jazz should grow now that it has become a recognized part of… [detailed...]
