Description: This book is designed to spark debate about the impact of current trends in employment. Based on years of research on employment practices in Canada, Lowe argues that employment figures are a poor measure of economic health and an inadequate basis for policies. Instead, he proposes that we reorganize the workplace around the idea of meaningful work--work that offers personal development, a social purpose, a decent standard of living, and a sense of economic security. Far from being whimsical or fiscally irresponsible, quality work can lay the groundwork for better lives for workers and a strong, stable economy. [detailed...]

Jeffrey A. Barrett
The Quantum Mechanics of Minds and Worlds

2001 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Jeffrey Barrett presents the most comprehensive study yet of a problem that has puzzled physicists and philosophers since the 1930s. The standard theory of quantum mechanics is in one sense the most successful physical theory ever, predicting the behaviour of the basic constituents of all physical things, no other theory has ever made such accurate empirical predictions. However, if one tries to understand the theory as providing a complete and accurate framework for the description of the behaviour of all physical interactions, it becomes evident that the theory is ambiguous, or even logically inconsistent. The most notable attempt to formulate the theory so as to deal with this problem, the quantum measurement problem, was initiated by Hugh Everett III in the 1950s. Barrett gives a careful and challenging examination and evaluation of the work of Everett and those who have followed him. His informal approach, minimizing technicality, will make the book accessible and illuminating… [detailed...]
