Princeton Studies in Complexity: Critical Transitions in Nature and Society

 

"This is an important book. Critical transitions and resilience are powerful explanatory tools in ecology today, and it is significant that Scheffer, the leading expert in the applications of critical transitions in ecology, has written a monograph in this area.

Why Ecosystems Matter

Darwin gained a profound insight into how complex ecosystems evolve through the interactions of their species. Here, visiting some remarkable ecosystems, Christopher Wills explains the recent scientific advances that allow us to measure the evolutionary drivers powering their diversity and resilience, and can enable us to protect and restore them.

Statistical Analysis of Molecular and Genomic Evolution

Proposes a new framework of knowledge for the field of evolutionary genomics. Written at the simplest mathematical level whilst offering a clear explanation of complex statistical models and principles.

Disembodied Brains

Until recently, brains in vats and animals with partly-human brains have been the realm of science fiction, but recent research is making them real. In Disembodied Brains, John H. Evans examines the viewpoints of professional ethicists and scientists on the implications of these new technologies, and how those viewpoints contrast with the fearful intuitions of the general public.
