Information Systems and DNA
The question of how life began is one of the most fundamental concerns in both science and religion. This issue stands at the heart of the conflict between atheistic and religious worldviews, and is deemed a mystery in science. Recent advances, however, in our understanding of the structure and function of DNA and protein have produced a wealth of knowledge concerning the uniqueness of these biological entities. This book hopes to contribute to this debate by arguing that of the three possible modes of explanation regularity, chance and design the informational nature of biological systems make design based explanations the most plausible. Furthermore, the available length of time for chemical evolution, the accepted atmospheric conditions of the early earth, and the integrated nature of biological systems all argue against competing explanations to design. The issues addressed here should be of interest to scholars and advanced students who are concerned with the question of the origin of life from both a religious and a scientific perspective.- Shop: buecher

The Problem of Political Authority
Modern states commonly deploy coercion in a wide array of circumstances in which the resort to force would clearly be wrong for any private agent. What entitles the state to behave in this manner? And why should citizens obey its commands? This book examines theories of political authority, from the social contract theory, to theories of democratic authorization, to fairness- and consequence-based theories. Ultimately, no theory of authority succeeds, and thus no government has the kind of authority often ascribed to governments.The author goes on to discuss how voluntary and competitive institutions could provide the central goods for the sake of which the state is often deemed necessary, including law, protection from private criminals, and national security. An orderly and liveable society thus does not require acquiescence in the illusion of political authority. Argues that no state possesses legitimate authority, and no individual is obligated to obey a law merely because it is the law- Shop: buecher

For the Ride
A major new book-length visionary poem from a writer "whose poems are among the major astonishments of contemporary poetry" (Robert Polito, the Poetry Foundation) Alice Notley has become one of the most highly regarded figures in American poetry, a master of the visionary mode acclaimed for genre-bending, book-length poems of great ambition and adventurousness. Her newest book, For the Ride, is another such work. The protagonist, "One," is suddenly within the glyph, whose walls project scenes One can enter, and One does so. Other beings begin to materialize, and it seems like they (and One) are all survivors of a global disaster. They board a ship to flee to another dimension; they decide what they must save on this Ark are words, and they gather together as many as are deemed fit to save. They "sail" and meanwhile begin to change the language they are speaking, before disembarking at an abandoned future city.- Shop: buecher
