Postmodernism versus truth in management theory

TL;DR: The question is, What right do we have to put our beliefs in a privileged position? Beliefs, by definition, are supposed to be true as discussed by the authors, especially when based on examination of evidence.

Sources and sinks of entropy in the atmosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, the irreversible generation and non-advective transport of entropy occur in the atmosphere, with many of these associated with moisture and precipitation, and the major effects of ice are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum mechanics, heredity and the origin of life.

TL;DR: It is concluded that a quantum theory of measurement is needed to explain enzymes as well as the reliability of biological evolution.

Consciousness and quantum information processing: uncovering the foundation for a medicine of light.

TL;DR: There is a many-body reality to the way biophysical light interacts with the human self-organization of information that may be achieved by means of biomolecular, metabolic, or neural communication, suggesting a "holomovement" that seeks to confirm itself and increasingly retrieves and uses only the information that serves its exchanges with the environment.

Nonequilibrium linear behavior of biological systems. Existence of enzyme-mediated multidimensional inflection points.

TL;DR: A multidimensional inflection point which can exist well outside the range of equilibrium around with enzyme-catalyzed reactions exhibit "linear" behavior between the logarithm of reactant concentrations and enzyme catalyzed flows is found.
