Summary

Critical acclaim for John Gribbin 
"The master of popular science."—Sunday Times (London) 
 
"Gribbin explains things very well indeed, and there's not an equation in sight."—David Goodstein, The New York Times Book Review (on Almost Everyone's Guide to Science) 
 
"Gribbin breathes life into the core ideas of complexity science, and argues convincingly that the basic laws, even in biology, will ultimately turn out to be simple."—Nature magazine (on Deep Simplicity) 
 
"Gribbin takes us through the basics [of chaos theory] with his customary talent for accessibility and clarity. [His] arguments are driven not by impersonal equations but by a sense of wonder at the presence in the universe and in nature of simple, self-organizing harmonies underpinning all structures, whether they are stars or flowers."—Sunday Times (London) (on Deep Simplicity) 
 
"In the true quantum realm, Gribbin remains the premier expositor of the latest developments."—Booklist (on Schrödinger's Kittens and the Search for Reality)
Available since: 08/13/2010.

    Wars have dominated politics since history began. In the modern era most of what the media reports on foreign conflicts comes from a small band of war correspondents. As the furore over the Iraq, Afghan and now the Libyan wars demonstrates, Western governments and militaries often collude to keep their voters in the dark about the causes and the conduct of wars waged in their name. In this entertaining and unspun account of modern war reporting, the authors ask whether the media itself drives democracies to war. Or does it serve to constrain evil, ignorant and messianic leaders? Are the heirs of William Howard Russell, the first modern war reporter, watchdogs or lapdogs? In the age of Wikileaks and corrupt media empires, what is the political impact of war correspondents? Are they the heroes or harlots of their profession?

    A groundbreaking, interdisciplinary approach to the study of consciousness: “Beautifully written, engaging throughout, and captivating” (Claire Colebrook, The Pennsylvania State University).   What can come of a scientific engagement with postmodern philosophy? Some scientists have claimed that the social sciences and humanities have nothing to contribute, except perhaps peripherally, to their research. Dorothea E. Olkowski shows that mathematics itself—the historic link between science and philosophy—plays a fundamental role in the development of the worldviews that drive both fields.   Focusing on language, its usage and expression of worldview, she develops a phenomenological account of human thought and action to explicate the role of philosophy in the sciences. Olkowski proposes a model of phenomenology, both scientific and philosophical, that helps make sense of reality and composes an ethics for dealing with unpredictability in our world.

    Literary Meditations for...

    Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many new techniques for remaining healthy have been introduced, but there has been little to no public discussion about how to live well. “Social distancing” is good medicine for the body, but the health of the spirit depends on wisdom. When we find ourselves in new and dangerous conditions, we can only look to the past for counsel. 
    
    In this book, originally published as Plague Literature and now in its second edition, the philosopher Dustin Peone offers reflections on ten literary classics set during plague times. From each work, he draws one central insight that is applicable to our situation today and all future pandemics. These insights are lessons in prudence, taught by the sages of the past. This is a book about how to pursue the good life during a pandemic and what it means to flourish in dark times, not just to survive.
    
    
    
    “This is a unique and timely work, offering the reader a systematic and historical perspective on the difficult and dangerous conditions of the present time.” 
    
    —Donald Phillip Verene, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, Emory University
    
    
    
    "An invaluable book, beautifully written in a classical style characterized by clarity and wit."
    
    —Brian P. Quaranta, Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities, and History of Medicine, Duke University
    
    
    
    “Peone’s book offers penetrating and essential insight about what is necessary for human flourishing in pandemic conditions. This should be read by anyone wishing to understand not only how to survive, but how to live well in dark and unsettling times.”
    
    —Rebecca U. Thorpe, Associate Professor of Political Science, University of Washington

    You may know that the I Ching, or Book of Changes is one of the world's oldest texts, written four to five thousand years ago and used by emperors and sages of advanced civilizations.  What you may not know is that this ancient divination system uses an intricate, numerically based concept of changing dual states that assisted in the development of binary mathematics in the 18th century and the first digital computers in the 1940s.
