What Is Biodiversity?

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the life sciences, there is wide-ranging debate about biodiversity. While nearly everyone is in favor of biodiversity and its conservation, methods for its assessment vary enormously. So what exactly is biodiversity? Most theoretical work on the subject assumes it has something to do with species richness—with the number of species in a particular region—but in reality, it is much more than that. Arguing that we cannot make rational decisions about what it is to be protected without knowing what biodiversity is, James Maclaurin and Kim Sterelny offer in What Is Biodiversity? a theoretical and conceptual exploration of the biological world and how diversity is valued. Here, Maclaurin and Sterelny explore not only the origins of the concept of biodiversity, but also how that concept has been shaped by ecology and more recently by conservation biology. They explain the different types of biodiversity important in evolutionary theory, developmental biology, ecology, morphology and… [detailed...]

Jerome Kagan
What Is Emotion?: History, Measures, and Meanings

2007 y.
Publisher: Yale University Press
Description: In this sophisticated overview of human emotions, a widely respected psychologist and author addresses the ambiguities and embraces the controversies that surround this intriguing subject. An insightful and lucid thinker, Jerome Kagan examines what exactly we do know about emotions, which popular assumptions about emotions are incorrect, and how scientific study must proceed if we are to uncover the answers to persistent and evasive questions about emotions. Integrating the findings of anthropological, psychological, and biological studies in his wide-ranging discussion, Kagan explores the evidence for great variation in the frequency and intensity of emotion among different cultures. He also discusses variations among individuals within the same culture and the influences of gender, class, ethnicity, and temperament on a person`s emotional patina. In his closing chapter, the author proposes that three sources of evidence - verbal descriptions of feelings, behaviours, and measures of… [detailed...]

What Is Feng-Shui? The Classic Nineteenth-Century Interpretation

2003 y.
Publisher: Dover Publications
Description: Promising peace and prosperity, feng-shui promotes living in harmony with the landscape. Its practice is intended to enhance the attractiveness of homes, workplaces, restaurants, and other buildings and to improve inhabitants` well-being. According to legend, feng-shui began with China`s first ruler, who sought to incorporate the laws of nature and the influence of cosmic forces into daily life. The practice served to sanctify practitioners` lives, attuning them to the moods and rhythms of nature and providing them with security and a sense of tradition. Ernest J.Eitel, a missionary who worked in China, learned firsthand about the oral tradition of feng-shui and its philosophical roots, which span a range of thought from Taoism and Buddhism to ancient rural magic. In 1873, Eitel published this, the first book on feng-shui, introducing Westerners to the principled but highly flexible code that can be applied to houses, apartments, offices, and commercial spaces.

What Is Life Worth?: The Unprecedented Effort to Compensate the Victims of 9/11

Description: Just eleven days after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Congress created the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. But in its haste, Congress provided very few guidelines as to how the funds should be distributed, and no limit on the in size. Instead it asked a single individual, Kenneth Feinberg, to do the impossible: calculate the dollar value of over 5,500 dead and injured in the worst peacetime disaster in US history. What Is Life Worth? is a personal account of Feinberg`s three-year struggle to compensate grieving families for catastrophic loss. As the Washington Post said in its glowing review, Feinberg found the answer to this confounding, heartbreaking dilemma, `not in actuarial tables or projected incomes but in the almost limitless capacity of people to love.` [detailed...]

Mark Twain
What Is Man?: And Other Irreverent Essays

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Mark Twain is sometimes envisioned as a kind of 19th-century American offshoot of Voltaire. Like his French counterpart, he expressed a deeply felt indignation at religious hypocrisy and obscurantism, and peppered his satirical writings, especially in his later years, with stinging wit and iconoclastic fervor. This unique collection assembles writings in which Twain views the multifarious claims of religion--metaphysical, moral, and political--with a skeptical eye. As editor S. T. Joshi points out in the introduction, Twain took aim at religion not just out of irreverent glee but because of serious concerns about central religious tenets that weighed on his mind for much of his life. Though he maintained till his death that he believed in God, he expressed deep skepticism regarding such religious beliefs as special Providence (God`s interference in the affairs of individual human beings), the concept of hell, the religious basis of morality, and the divine inspiration of the Bible….
