  "Principles of Political Economy" is a book by the British philosopher and economist John Stuart Mill. It was first published in 1848 and is considered one of the most influential works in the field of economics. 
  In this book, Mill sets out to provide a comprehensive account of the principles of political economy, which he defines as "the science which treats of the production and distribution of wealth." He covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of wealth, the laws of supply and demand, the role of competition, and the relationship between labor and capital. 
  One of Mill's main contributions to the field of economics was his advocacy for a laissez-faire economic policy, which advocates for minimal government intervention in the market. He argued that a free market, where individuals are free to pursue their own self-interest, would lead to greater prosperity and economic growth. 
  In addition to his economic theories, Mill also addressed social and political issues such as the role of women in society, the importance of education, and the need for democratic governance. 
  Overall, "Principles of Political Economy" is a seminal work in the history of economics and continues to be studied and debated today for its insights into economic theory and the role of government in the market.

  Plasticity and Pathology - On...

  Two leading neuroscientists examine the current paradigm of the “neural subject” and what we can learn from neurological trauma, pathology, and adaption.   With the rise of cognitive science and the revolution in neuroscience, the study of human subjects—thinking, feeling, acting individuals—ultimately focuses on the human brain. In both Europe and the United States, massive state-funded research is focused on mapping the brain in all its remarkable complexity. The metaphors employed are largely technological, using a diagram of synaptic connectivity as a path to understanding human behavior. But alongside this technologized discourse, we find another perspective, one that emphasizes the brain’s essential plasticity, both in development and as a response to traumas such as strokes, tumors, or gunshot wounds.   This collection of essays brings together a diverse range of scholars to investigate how the “neural subject” of the twenty-first century came to be. Taking approaches both historical and theoretical, they probe the possibilities and limits of neuroscientific understandings of human experience. Topics include landmark studies in the history of neuroscience, the relationship between neural and technological “pathologies,” and analyses of contemporary concepts of plasticity and pathology in cognitive neuroscience.   Central to the volume is a critical examination of the relationship between pathology and plasticity. Because pathology is often the occasion for neural reorganization and adaptation, it exists not in opposition to the brain’s “normal” operation but instead as something intimately connected to our ways of being and understanding.
