Information Approach to Mitochondrial Dysfunction, An: Extending Swerdlow's Hypothesis
ISBN: 9789814663502 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The monograph applies sophisticated topological symmetry tools to biological applications of information theory, along with a Black-Scholes model invocation of the Data Rate Theorem which links information and control theories. The focus is on statistical mechanics and other models that explore pathological phase transitions — driven by changes in available rates of mitochondrial free energy — in physiological functions, a cutting-edge topic in the study of chronic disease. One of the key focuses is Alzheimer's disease — a relatively simple canonical example.

Collective Consciousness and Its Discontents: Institutional Distributed Cognition, Racial Policy, and Public Health in the United States
ISBN: 9780387767642 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. An earlier book by Rodrick Wallace entitled Consciousness: A Mathematical Treatment of the Global Neuronal Workspace Model, introduced a formal information-theoretic approach to individual consciousness implementing approaches developed previously by the cognitive scientist Bernard Baars and the philosopher Fred Dretske. This book takes a more formal 'groupoid' perspective and generalizes the results of that book to processes of 'distributed cognition' characteristic of large institutions that can entertain several, sometimes many, simultaneous 'global workspaces' which must compete...

Mathematical Approach to Multilevel, Multiscale Health Interventions, A: Pharmaceutical Industry Decline and Policy Response
ISBN: 9781848169968 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book, based on published studies, takes a unique perspective on the 30-year collapse of pharmaceutical industry productivity in the search for small molecule “magic bullet” interventions. The relentless escalation of inflation-adjusted cost per approved medicine in the United States — from $200 million in 1950 to $1.2 billion in 2010 — has driven industry giants to, at best, slavish imitation in drug design, and at worst, abandonment of research and embracing of widespread fraud in consumer marketing.The book adapts formalism across a number of disciplines to...

Consciousness: A Mathematical Treatment of the Global Neuronal Workspace Model
ISBN: 9781489995629 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is not an intellectual history or popular summary of recent work on consciousness in humans. Bernard Baars (1988), Edelman and Tononi (2000), and many others, have written such, and done it well indeed. This book, rather, brings the powerful analytic machinery of communication theory to bear on the Global Neuronal Workspace (GNW) model of consciousness which Baars introduced, and does so in a formal mathematical manner. It is not the first such attempt. The philospher Fred Dretske (1981), indep- dent of Baars, long ago outlined how information theory might illuminate the...

Clear-Cutting Disease Control: Capital-Led Deforestation, Public Health Austerity, and Vector-Borne Infection
ISBN: 9783319728490 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The resulting outbreaks are characterized by greater extent, duration, and momentum. This book discusses two key but opposing causes of vector-borne outbreaks - deforestation and urbanization - and proposes that these two impacts together explain the explosive spread of recent vector-borne infections.

Stabilizing Self-dynamic Socioeconomies: Evolutionary and ecological perspectives on farming economic systems for human needs
ISBN: 9781467972383 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The creation of economic institutions that can function under the impact of substantial 'non-quantifiable' risks is analogous to the dilemmas confronting our hunter-gatherer forefathers in the face of large-scale ecological uncertainties. The ultimate solution was not a super hunter-gatherer technology that could ride out repeated catastrophe, but the invention, in neolithic times, of culturally-adapted 'farmed' ecosystems constructed to maximize food yield and minimize risks of famine. This book applies evolutionary and ecosystem theory to the design of culturally-specific farmed economies,...

An indictment of the decision to close fire companies in New York City in the 1970s, and a frightening study of the way misguided and malevolent social policy can spark a chain reaction of enormous and unforeseen urban collapse.
