With Marx and Nature , Paul Burkett reconstructs Marx's approach to nature, society, and environmental crisis. While recognizing that production is structured by historically developed relations among producers, Marx also insists that production as a social and material process is shaped and constrained by natural conditions, including the natural condition of human bodily existence. Marx's value analysis places him squarely in the camp of the growing number of ecological theorists questioning the ability of monetary and market-based calculations to adequately represent the natural conditions of human production and development.

The Book of Natural Hair Questions and Answers from a Stylist's Perspective hits upon the key questions many natural hair individuals have about their mane. The questions and answers range from 100 percent natural, styling tools and aids, (dread)locks, general questions and much more. This book is not your average reference book. It is based on facts about hair, and the experience of a licensed cosmetologist with over 15 years of natural hair styling expertise. Regardless of your hair texture and gender, this book is for you. You will find The Book of Natural Hair Questions and Answers from a Stylist's Perspective easy to comprehend, and a wonderful addition in your reading reference collection. Example of questions: Can I use sunscreen in my natural tress? Are styling options limited when transitioning? What is fools hair? Are two separate shampoos necessary when shampooing transitioning hair? Will doubling my locks be harmful? What is hard and soft water? Why are preservatives used in products? Are homemade hair products safe to use? What is curl reforming? These questions were generated from years of consultations Y.L. Hernandez had with single fathers raising daughters, women who went natural more than once due to misinformation about hair and your overall curious individuals. You will find The Book of Natural Hair Questions and Answers from a Stylist Perspective gets to the point in a question and answer format, does not promote products that will sit in home, and will have you THINK and CONCLUDE the choices that are right for your everyday living.

This is the story of how one child fell in love with nature and your students can, too. Taking what he calls 'a nature-centered worldview', author Robert Stebbins blends activities, examples, and stories with his perspectives on the importance of dealing objectively yet compassionately with social and environmental problems.

This book is about nature considered as the totality of physical existence, the universe, and our present day attempts to understand it. If we see the universe as a network of networks of computational processes at many different levels of organization, what can we learn about physics, biology, cognition, social systems, and ecology expressed through interacting networks of elementary particles, atoms, molecules, cells, (and especially neurons when it comes to understanding of cognition and intelligence), organs, organisms and their ecologies? Regarding our computational models of natural phenomena Feynman famously wondered: “Why should it take an infinite amount of logic to figure out what one tiny piece of space/time is going to do?” Phenomena themselves occur so quickly and automatically in nature. Can we learn how to harness nature’s computational power as we harness its energy and materials? This volume includes a selection of contributions from the Symposium on Natural Computing/Unconventional Computing and Its Philosophical Significance, organized during the AISB/IACAP World Congress 2012, held in Birmingham, UK, on July 2-6, on the occasion of the centenary of Alan Turing’s birth. In this book, leading researchers investigated questions of computing nature by exploring various facets of computation as we find it in nature: relationships between different levels of computation, cognition with learning and intelligence, mathematical background, relationships to classical Turing computation and Turing’s ideas about computing nature - unorganized machines and morphogenesis. It addresses questions of information, representation and computation, interaction as communication, concurrency and agent models; in short this book presents natural computing and unconventional computing as extension of the idea of computation as symbol manipulation.

Natural Perspective is a book that should inspire the reader to believe in the power of the human race and in our ability to live with each other and resolve our problems with open minds and open hearts. In it, I cite knowledge that has been handed down to us by many of our greatest thinkers and philosophers, and I utilize that knowledge to aid me in describing and explaining what I have called Natural Perspective. In a world of chaos and constant wars, Natural Perspective should be appealing to a society hungry for good news and sick and tired of the same old bad news: poverty, famine, war, and disorder. Natural Perspective expresses an uplifting message of optimism -- a message that may help to silence the mundane noise in which we live.
