        Die Idee der Natur

        by Robin G. Collingwood, Martin Suhr, Axel Honneth

        Robin G. Collingwood zählt zu jenen großen britischen Universalgelehrten, die auf ebenso scharfsinnige wie elegante Weise die unterschiedlichsten wissenschaftlichen Disziplinen in ihren Schriften verbinden. Mit Die Idee der Natur liegt nun eines seiner Hauptwerke erstmals auf deutsch vor.Anhand der drei großen Epochen kosmologischen Denkens in Europa – der Kosmologie der Griechen, der Renaissance und der Moderne – zeichnet Collingwood die Geschichte des Naturbegriffs als eine Geschichte wachsenden Mißverstehens nach, die die zunehmende Trennung zwischen Naturwissenschaften und Philosophie dokumentiert. Diese »Kluft des Mißverstehens« muß jedoch überbrückt werden, denn sie schlägt sich in einer moralischen Korrumpierbarkeit der aus den Naturwissenschaften abgeleiteten Weltanschauungen nieder. Die Idee der Natur ist nicht nur ein Glanzstück philosophischer Literatur, sondern auch ein wichtiger Beitrag zu den aktuellen Debatten zwischen der Philosophie und den Naturwissenschaften.

        Evaluating Indirect Ecological Effects of Biological Control

        by Edited by Eric Wajnberg, John K Scott, Paul C Quimby

        A major concern for biological control has always been the risk of indirect unwanted effects on the ecology of other organisms. Our understanding of the ecological and evolutionary processes underlying these effects has until now been limited and experimental methods sometimes lacking. This book presents the key papers from of the first International Organisation for Biological Control global symposium, held in Montpellier, France, in October 1999. It addresses the issues and concerns involved in biological control, and assesses the current status of evaluation of the ecological effects.
