  • Natural Selection and Coalescent Theory
    Natural Selection and Coalescent Theory John Wakeley Harvard University INTRODUCTION The story of population genetics begins with the publication of Darwin’s Origin of Species and the tension which followed concerning the nature of inheritance. Today, workers in this field aim to understand the forces that produce and maintain genetic variation within and between species. For this we use the most direct kind of genetic data: DNA sequences, even entire genomes. Our “Great Obsession” with explaining genetic variation (Gillespie, 2004a) can be traced back to Darwin’s recognition that natural selection can occur only if individuals of a species vary, and this variation is heritable. Darwin might have been surprised that the importance of natural selection in shaping variation at the molecular level would be de-emphasized, beginning in the late 1960s, by scientists who readily accepted the fact and importance of his theory (Kimura, 1983). The motivation behind this chapter is the possible demise of this Neutral Theory of Molecular Evolution, which a growing number of population geneticists feel must follow recent observations of genetic variation within and between species. One hundred fifty years after the publication of the Origin, we are struggling to fully incorporate natural selection into the modern, genealogical models of population genetics. The main goal of this chapter is to present the mathematical models that have been used to describe the effects of positive selective sweeps on genetic variation, as mediated by gene genealogies, or coalescent trees. Background material, comprised of population genetic theory and simulation results, is provided in order to facilitate an understanding of these models.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • The Concept of Manifold, 1850-1950
    CHAPTER 2 The Concept of Manifold, 1850-1950 Erhard Scholz Fachbereich Mathematik, Bergische Universitat Gesamthochschule Wuppertal, Gausstrasse 20, 42097 Wuppertal, Germany 1. Origin of the manifold concept 1.1. n-dimensional systems geometrized In the early 19th century we find diverse steps towards a generalization of geometric lan­ guage to higher dimensions. But they were still of a tentative and often merely metaphori­ cal character. The analytical description of dynamical systems in classical mechanics was a field in which, from hindsight, one would expect a drive towards and a growing awareness of the usefulness of higher dimensional geometrical language.^ But the sources do not, with some minor exceptions, imply such expectations. Although already Lagrange had used the possibility to consider time as a kind of fourth dimension in addition to the three spatial coordinates of a point in his Mecanique analitique (1788) and applied a contact argument to function systems in 5 variables by transfer from the 3-dimensional geometrical case in his Theorie des fonctions analytiques (1797, Section 3.5.25), these early indications were not immediately followed by others. Not before the 1830-s and 1840-s do we find broader attempts to generalize geometri­ cal language and geometrical ideas to higher dimensions: Jacobi (1834), e.g., calculated the volume of n-dimensional spheres and used orthogonal substitutions to diagonalize quadratic forms in n variables, but preferred to avoid explicit geometrical language in his investigations. Cayley's Chapters in the analytical geometry ofn dimensions (1843) did use such explicit geometrical language - but still only in the title, not in the text of the article.

  • Cosmic Visions of the Future: the Science Fiction of Stephen Baxter Tom Lombardo “In My Books, I Deal with a Whole Set of Futu
    Cosmic Visions of the Future: The Science Fiction of Stephen Baxter Tom Lombardo “In my books, I deal with a whole set of futures. That’s deliberate. I’d say the point of science fiction is trying to figure out the meaning of our lives. What is the meaning for humanity of this new understanding we have?” Stephen Baxter The seventeenth century philosopher Baruch Spinoza argued that reality should be viewed “through the eyes of eternity.” To get a true picture of things, look at reality in the context of the big cosmic picture. If we follow this line of thinking and apply it to the future, then we should stand back from our local and relatively short term ideas on the future, stretch our imaginative powers to the limits, and attempt to envision the most all-encompassing panoramic visions of the cosmos, both in space and time. We should also, following Spinoza, ask and consider possible answers to the big questions of life in pondering the meaning and significance of the future. In this spirit, the philosopher and science fiction writer Olaf Stapledon, in his novels The Last and First Men and Star Maker, speculated on the entire future history of humanity, the evolution of intelligence and mind within the universe until literally the end of time, the existence and nature of God, the purpose and meaning of life, and the unending quest for knowledge and enlightenment.1 Frequently compared with Stapledon, the contemporary science fiction writer Stephen Baxter not only writes on a vast cosmic scale that, in fact, exceeds Stapledon in scope, but also attempts to address in his novels, as did Stapledon, the big philosophical questions of existence.

  • Genealogical Trees, Coalescent Theory and the Analysis of Genetic Polymorphisms
    REVIEWS GENEALOGICAL TREES, COALESCENT THEORY AND THE ANALYSIS OF GENETIC POLYMORPHISMS Noah A. Rosenberg and Magnus Nordborg Improvements in genotyping technologies have led to the increased use of genetic polymorphism for inference about population phenomena, such as migration and selection. Such inference presents a challenge, because polymorphism data reflect a unique, complex, non-repeatable evolutionary history. Traditional analysis methods do not take this into account. A stochastic process known as the ‘coalescent’ presents a coherent statistical framework for analysis of genetic polymorphisms. 1 POLYMORPHISM DATA In their classic experiment, Luria and Delbrück states of the different loci are statistically dependent Data that include the genotypes observed independent runs of the evolution of phage owing to genetic linkage, and for each locus, the of many individuals sampled at resistance in bacterial populations that were initially allelic states of different haplotypes are statistically one or more loci; here we susceptible to phage infection.

S. Lewis has begun to garner more scholarly attention in the last few decades, but his first novels, his science fiction or Space trilogy, continue to be largely ignored by academia. Yet, these three novels are deserving of more serious study, as they are pioneering works of literary science fiction, and even more surprisingly, of literary medievalism.
