Elements in the Philosophy of Biology

Baedke J: The Organism

The Organism

A bold and brilliant new collection of essays by one of our most important writers of life in America today This new collection gathers together for the first time sixteen essays by one of our most revered chroniclers of life in America, a landmark commentary on family, faith, community, and the threats of modernization. Ranging from the devastating effects of war on children to the endless problems of industrialism and the ubiquitous need for connection and community, Dispatches From Rural America captures a country isolated from its land and beginnings, too focused on mass production and output, and perilously estranged from the spiritual centers that make up the foundation of our lives.&nbsp; On the cusp of the fiftieth anniversary of Berry’s seminal book The Unsettling of America, Dispatches From Rural America is urgent and vital reading in this time of political chaos from one of our most important writers.

Sixteen Essays

Dispatches from Rural America

A paradigm-shifting textbook that teaches graduate students in economics how to use economic models to interpret data. Offering a new pedagogical paradigm, this textbook delivers a ready-made economics course covering the general concepts that unify different approaches to bringing economic models to data. Jesse Shapiro presents core ideas in quantitative economics as an abstract, cohesive whole and introduces canonical models that can be used across a wide range of applications. This course-in-a-book exposes students to stylized applications of these models that illuminate their foundations as well as recent research articles demonstrating the models’ broad applicability. <ul><li>Provides a coherent, generalized approach to making model-based inferences in empirical economics</li><li>Introduces central concepts and canonical models in quantitative economics</li><li>Features applications of modern research topics</li><li>Suits self-paced learning and classroom use alike</li></ul>

Introduction to Quantitative Economics

Ancient Wisdom for a Better Night’s Rest

How to Sleep Like a Caveman

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

How Economists Use Natural Experiments to Decipher Our World

Daughters, Diplomats, and Death

Mandela's Leadership Legacy explores Nelson Mandela's extraordinary ability to lead through moments of existential crisis and uncertainty. Central to his leadership was his attunement to mood-the emotional and existential atmosphere through which people experience disruption. Long overlooked in leadership studies, mood shaped the way Mandela created trust, defused fear, and opened possibilities when conventional strategies failed.Mandela's wisdom was forged not only in prison but in the existential challenges he faced upon leaving the familiarity of his ancestral homeland and confronting the disorientation of city life. From this early rupture through to his imprisonment, the collapse of apartheid, and the assassination of Chris Hani, he demonstrated a rare capacity to transform existential threats into opportunities for renewal and unity. This book examines how Mandela combined strategic foresight with therapeutic sensitivity, allowing him to guide individuals and nations through disruption with ethical resolve and visionary clarity. Drawing on frameworks from Heidegger and Ubuntu it highlights Mandela's "existential practical wisdom"-the ability to embrace uncertainty, work with paradox, and foster collective transformation through attuned presence.By investigating Mandela's profound relational sensitivity, including his ability to turn estrangement and enmity into trust and collaboration, the book offers timeless lessons for navigating today's global crises. It is ideal for professionals seeking inspiration for leading in turbulent times and for students interested in leadership, philosophy, or history.

This book is the second part of a two-volume set that provides a foundation in operational gaming, the use of games to inform plans and sound decisions. Whereas the first volume provided foundations for theoretical understanding, this volume emphasizes practice. It establishes the influence of games on history, then gets into the grammar of games to complement the logic addressed in volume 1. As games were the principal metric for advances in artificial intelligence until recently, it traces developments in artificial intelligence and compares AI architectures with complex adaptive system algorithms, resulting in conclusions for where AI will excel and why artificial general and super intelligence can only be achieved by changing definitions of what they are. It highlights the power and pitfalls of AI and suggests uses of artificial intelligence in operational games. It concludes by presenting the theory of operational games in a nutshell and why operational gaming will emerge as a principal technique for dealing with growing complexity.

Warum greifen wir zum Handy, obwohl wir eigentlich Ruhe brauchen? Warum stresst uns eine kurze E-Mail mehr, als sie sollte? Warum fällt Veränderung so schwer, obwohl wir genau wissen, was uns guttun würde?
Dieses Buch zeigt: Viele moderne Probleme sind keine Zeichen von Schwäche, Faulheit oder mangelnder Disziplin. Sie entstehen, weil ein uraltes Gehirn in einer hochmodernen Welt zurechtkommen muss.
Unser Körper wurde für Bewegung gebaut, lebt aber oft im Sitzen. Unser Gehirn entwickelte sich in kleinen Gruppen, vergleicht sich heute aber täglich mit Tausenden Menschen. Unser Alarmsystem war für echte Gefahren gedacht, reagiert nun auf Termine, Nachrichten, Kritik, Geldsorgen und digitale Dauerreize.
Leicht verständlich, alltagsnah und mit einem Augenzwinkern erklärt dieses Buch, wie Erkenntnisse aus Evolutionspsychologie, Stressforschung, Arbeitspsychologie und Gesundheitswissenschaften helfen können, den modernen Alltag besser zu verstehen.
Es geht um Ernährung, Schlaf, Stress, Social Media, Status, Beziehungen, Geld, Führung, Meetings, Homeoffice, Denkfehler und Gewohnheiten. Immer mit der zentralen Frage: Was passiert, wenn unser innerer Steinzeitmensch auf Büro, Smartphone und Großstadtdschungel trifft?
Dieses Buch ist kein Aufruf zurück in die Steinzeit. Es ist eine Einladung, moderner zu leben, ohne die eigene Biologie zu ignorieren.
Für alle, die sich selbst besser verstehen, gelassener handeln und ihren Alltag menschlicher gestalten möchten.

Wie die Evolution unseren Alltag beherrscht

Aus der Savanne ins Büro

The New Science of Smell

The Forgotten Sense

A “magnificent” (Science) exploration of how genetics complicates our ideas about blame, punishment, and moral responsibility, from acclaimed psychologist and author of The Genetic Lottery Kathryn Paige Harden. “Not a dry, restrained, contained scientific inquiry but a daring, complex, sometimes confounding and ultimately powerful tapestry of a book.”—The New York Times Book Review As one of the world’s leading scientists examining how our DNA shapes differences in temperament, temptation, and behavior, Kathryn Paige Harden has seen firsthand how we continue to struggle—in public and in our most private relationships—with the ancient tensions between nature and nurture, freedom and constraint, the desire to punish and the longing to forgive. In Original Sin, she weaves together insights from her own experience as a daughter, mother, wife, and scientist with cutting-edge research in genetics and psychology to grapple with some of the most important questions in modern life: How do we take responsibility for the people we become, knowing how we are shaped by both biology and experience? How should we respond when people hurt each other—or themselves? And has science made guilt obsolete? Navigating the psychological and biological terrain of addiction, antisocial behavior, and violence, Harden confronts the disorienting ways science unsettles our understanding of wrongdoing and choice. In doing so, she asks us not to absolve but to reckon differently with notions of fairness and blame. A revelatory inquiry into the uneasy space where human behavior meets inherited biology, Original Sin challenges us to imagine a more humane vision of accountability—for ourselves and for one another.

"Lost Worlds convinces us of the value of slowing down to recognize the tremendous diversity of the human past. But he presses hard against the conclusion that there was any direction or pattern behind its complexity." —The Wall Street Journal“A spellbinding tour de force!” —Walter Scheidel, author of What Is Ancient History?“This is non-fiction storytelling at its finest.” —Eric H. Cline, author of 1177 B.C.The creator of the hit podcast Tides of History offers a new look at humanity’s deep past, showing us how our world was built not by inevitability, but by trial and error on a global scale.There’s a familiar story about us humans: we went from hunting and gathering to farming, wandering bands to villages and cities, clans and chieftains to states and kings. But Lost Worlds offers a new narrative of humanity’s deep history. Here beloved podcast host Patrick Wyman focuses on the 10,000-year span between the end of the Ice Age and the decline of the Bronze Age—the period when civilization as we understand it emerged, introducing social hierarchies, urbanism, complex political organizations, and the written word.In this nuanced retelling, human progress is no longer a straight march from caves to cities: Farming didn’t always replace foraging, villages didn’t automatically spark agriculture, and cities didn’t necessitate rigid hierarchies. For thousands of years, humans merely improvised. By the end of the Bronze Age, the world had become unrecognizable: mammoths and giant sloths replaced by cattle and sheep, scattered nomadic bands replaced by millions living in cities, and farming on nearly every continent. Wyman argues that the rise of states and steady food production wasn’t inevitable, but rather, the outcome of countless choices that reshaped the planet and made us who we are today.Combining cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, Lost Worlds explores: <ul><li>A Sweeping New History of the Ancient World: Discover how early societies rose, adapted, and collapsed across thousands of years of human history.</li><li>The Archaeology Revolution: Ancient DNA, climate science, and new excavation methods are revealing how prehistoric people lived, migrated, and fought.</li><li>From Ice Age Hunters to Early Civilizations: Follow the dramatic transformation that led from nomadic foragers to farming, cities, and powerful states.</li><li>Why Societies Rise—and Fall: Learn how climate change, migration, population growth, and conflict shaped the fate of early civilizations.</li></ul>
