Eric B. Baum
What Is Thought? (Bradford Books)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In What Is Thought? Eric Baum proposes a computational explanation of thought. Just as Erwin Schrodinger in his classic 1944 work What Is Life? argued ten years before the discovery of DNA that life must be explainable at a fundamental level by physics and chemistry, Baum contends that the present-day inability of computer science to explain thought and meaning is no reason to doubt there can be such an explanation. Baum argues that the complexity of mind is the outcome of evolution, which has built thought processes that act unlike the standard algorithms of computer science and that to understand the mind we need to understand these thought processes and the evolutionary process that produced them in computational terms. Baum proposes that underlying mind is a complex but compact program that corresponds to the underlying structure of the world. He argues further that the mind is essentially programmed by DNA. We learn more rapidly than computer scientists… [detailed...]

What Is Water?: The History of a Modern Abstraction (Nature/History/Society)

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: We all know what water is and many of us take it for granted. But because it seems so natural, the way we see water is seldom given critical attention. This book provides a much-needed analysis of how we view water, showing that modern understandings have given rise to a global crisis. Jamie Linton argues that modern Western society tends to understand water as a scientific abstraction - as merely H20 or the substance occurring in the hydrologic cycle. We have lost sight of its essential fecundity and stripped it of its wider environmental, social, and cultural contexts. This removal, or abstraction, has given modern society license to treat water as something that may dammed, diverted, and manipulated with impunity. The water crisis can be averted, Linton concludes, by deliberately reinvesting water with social content. [detailed...]

What Is the Single Tax

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: As a rational method of bringing the present social order into conformity with natural social laws which it now ignores, the Single Tax was proposed and explained early in the last third of the nineteenth century by Henry George (1839-1897). The issue of the single tax is discussed, as are fiscal and social defects of the existing system, and criticisms of proposed remedies. The economic and social advantages of the single tax are set forth with methods of implementation. Louis Freeland Post was a well respected journalist, lawyer, publicist, economist, author of many books, and Undersecretary of Labor in the Woodrow Wilson administration. He died in Washington, D.C., in 1928. He was a lifelong friend of Henry George, and in the 1880s was an editor of Henry George?s weekly organ in New York, The Standard. [detailed...]
