Hi Folks,
I'm very pleased to announce that my personal written contribution
to the science journal, BioTheory, that I launched last month... is now plugged
into its spot at the journal. It is available for free in PDF format at the
following link (Click on "Judith Rosen" when you get there...)
BioTheory: An E-Journal of General Science in the Rosennean Complexity
Paradigm http://www.rosen-enterprises.com/RobertRosen/BioTheoryLaunch.htm
I suspect that this is not the type of paper many of you are
used to finding in a science journal... just as well, really, for many reasons.
(Heaven forbid that Rosens should be anything BUT UNorthodox...!) In
any case... I tend to believe that this particular paper, about these particular
subjects, will have far more truth, in a far more accessible mode, than it would
be possible to craft as a writer, using the ordinary format of direct
reportage. It's the only way I could really introduce anyone to my father, the
man, as well as the science/scientist, at this juncture. The character in the
fictional story, "The Devil's Advocate," whose name is Robert Rosen... is
exactly faithful to the man I knew and so are his ideas, as far as is humanly
possible. I think of fiction as the equivalent of a "word picture" and, as such,
fiction can sometimes offer readers far more information than any sum
of its words.
I would be interested in comments from the list, and constructive
criticism is always welcome, too.
I hope it is of use to you.
