- Description
- In this book David Stamos wants to question whether and to what extent evolutionary biology shines light on the big questions debated in the humanities and social sciences.The main theme in the book is the debate between evolutionary explanations and what has come to be known as the Standard Social Science Model. This model is a way of looking at human nature that is commonly found in sociology, behaviorism in psychology, cultural anthropology, Marxism, women's studies, and gay studies. Stamos examines topics of race, sex, gender, the nature of language, religion, ethics, knowledge, consciousness and ultimately, the meaning of life from different perspectives.

- Description
- Rachel Carson, who was a nature and science writer, has been credited with founding the modern environmental movement. 'Silent Spring', published in 1962, provoked a public outcry against the dangers of indiscriminate pesticide use and chemical toxins in the environment. Exposing her enthusiasm for the natural world and the depth of her writings, the contributors to this book examine her books, speeches, essays, and the letters she wrote as she prepared to die from breastcancer. Themes in the book are: a legacy of activism and advocacy: ethics on land and sea: reflections on gender and science: an ongoing toxic discourse: and a legacy of wonder.

- Description
- Bioethics and the body are discussed in feminist and postmodernist terms. Issues in philosophy, law, bioscientific research, psychiatry, cultural studies, and feminism are addressed. After exploring theories of difference, the authors consider specific issues—including HIV, addiction, borderline personality disorder, disability and cancer—that challenge the principles of conventional bioethics. The traditional feminist ethics of care in the context of new reproductive technology is discussed as well as genetic and genomic issues, and some specifically anomalous forms of being-in-the-body, such as intersex conditions.
