 The
Brain and the Universe : A Scientific Inquiry
by Orlando N. Acosta, Joaquin Navarro (Illustrator)
Discusses the creation and evolution of the universe,
the structure of matter, and the forces acting on it. Derives the
restrictions inherent in human logic. Discusses human's religious
beliefs. Predicts that by the year 3000 we'll create an improved version
of the human species. The goals of this planned human evolution are to
improve the chances for survival of the new species in an earth depleted
resources, and to make the new species capable of carrying out a program
of deep space exploration.

Created and maintained by Frank Edler, Ph.D.
Philosophy Metropolitan Community College (Omaha, NE). This is an
excellent interactive Critical Thinking Tutorial.
Excerpt from the Introduction:
In many of your classes, especially English Composition, Philosophy, and Humanities, you will have to write a paper on
an number of issues such as racism, sexism, or capital punishment. Whatever your topic, you will probably have to read a variety of
source materials before you can begin to write your own paper.
Reading through these materials is not an easy task. Skimming through introductory and concluding sections of books and essays
helps you get a rough idea of where an author stands on an issue. Sooner or later, though, you will have to do the "donkey work" of
carefully reading the materials you've selected for your issue.
Before you can evaluate an issue, you have to be able to identify the range of positions one can take on that issue and to summarize
fairly what those positions are.
Here's where critical reasoning and critical reading can help you!

Meant to entice students and fellow researchers, this
well organized and aesthetically austere website is an introduction to modal
operator theory. Based upon the work of Vincent Hendricks and Stig
Andur Pedersen, this site introduces the applications
of modal logic and formal learning theory to epistemology, methodology and
philosophy of science.

Linear logic was developed by J.Y.Girard as part of his
investigation into the semantics of Intuitionistic Logic. Linear Logic has now matured
into a rich area of active research: a workshop
devoted to linear logic was held at Cornell in 1993, and another workshop was held at Keio
University in Tokyo in 1996. Many papers have been
published regarding linear logic semantics, proof theory, complexity, and expressiveness,
and there is an electronic mailing
list devoted to linear logic (to join send email to linear-request@cs.stanford.edu). Frank
Pfenning has developed a graduate course on linear logic: course material. Site
