What Went Wrong with Economics: The flawed assumptions that led economists astray
ISBN: 9781463670290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In April 2007, a report produced by the International Monetary Fund concluded that the world economy was in great shape only for the biggest economic crisis since the Great Depression to hit just months later. How could economists have got it so wrong? When engineers try to understand complex systems, they are forced to make simplifying assumptions. Sadly if these are flawed, no amount of mathematical wizardry will repair the damage. This book examines the possibility that the problem with economics stems from flawed assumptions. It appears that mainstream economics set off on the wrong foot....

Improving Nature?: The Science and Ethics of Genetic Engineering
ISBN: 9780521008471 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Little more than a decade ago the term "genetic engineering" was hardly known outside research laboratories. Today it regularly makes headlines. Those in favor of genetic engineering--and those against it--tell us that it has the potential to change our lives perhaps more than any other scientific or technological advance. But what are the likely consequences of genetic engineering? Is it ethically acceptable? Should we be trying to improve on nature? In Improving Nature?, the authors, a biologist and a moral philosopher, examine the implications of genetic engineering in every aspect of our...

The Place of Ethics in Science Education: Implications for Practice
ISBN: 9781350255135 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Science education, particularly school science education, has long had an uneasy relationship with ethics, being unsure whether to embrace ethics or leave it to others. In this book, the authors argue that while the methods of science and of ethics are very different, ethics plays a key role in how science is undertaken and used. And so, ethics has a central place in science education, whether we are talking of school science education, for students of all ages, or the informal science education that takes place in through internet, books, magazines, TV and radio, or in places such as...

The Allometry of Growth and Reproduction
ISBN: 9780521423588 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The technique of allometry investigates the effects of size on such variables as food intake, energy requirements, growth rates, and age at first reproduction. Reiss brings together much of what is known about the consequences of size and provides a new and mathematically rigorous framework within which many quantitative predictions are made and tested using published and unpublished data. The models presented afford a new synthesis of the effects of size and open up pathways for further theoretical investigation and experimental testing. Care has been taken to give verbal presentations of...
