Lucent Technologies Bell Lab - ... and interactive educational experience leading to a richer understanding of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers and their applications. Converging Realities: Toward a Common Philosophy of Physics and Mathematics Roland Omnes has a knack for writing in at least three of the world's major languages: English, French, and Science. I have at times found a lifetime's worth of insight in a single paragraph of his. The present work is no exception. For though I disagreed with whole swaths of the book, I learned much from it and had to fight every inch of the way to shore up my position against its onslaught. No discussion of reality should ignore this powerful and novel exposition."--Christopher A. Fuchs, Bell Labs, Lucent Technologies "To explain the seemingly miraculous effectiveness of mathematics in the natural sciences, Omnes valiantly undertakes to show that mathematical structures are a distillate of the laws of nature. On his way to this goal, he gives a concise, yet highly readable and surprisingly illuminating overview of the main ideas of quantum mechanics. Lucent Technologies - On September 30 ...

Medical Science and Technology - HOME Medical Science and Technology Rationalizing Medical Work: Decision-Support Techniques and Medical Practices by Marc Berg, Our response to the skyrocketing cost and nonuniform delivery of medical care has been a call for the rationalizing of medical practice through decision-support techniques. These tools, which include protocols, decision analysis, and expert systems, have generated much debate. Advocates argue that they will make medical practice more rational, more uniform, and more efficient and that they will transform the "art" of medical work into a "science." Critics argue that formal tools cannot and should not supplant humans in most real-life tasks. Marc Berg takes the issues raised by advocates and critics as points of departure for investigation, rather than as positions to choose from. Drawing on insights and methodologies from ...
