Improving Decisions About Hearth, Wealth, and Happiness By Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein (Yale University Press, 304 pages, $26) IN A SEMINAL 1962 EPISODE OF THE TWILIGHT ZONE alien visitors enrapture humanity with plati- tudes about intergalactic fellowship, advanced- technology solutions to earth's most intractable problems, and, finally, offers of an all-expense-paid trip to a utopia among the stars. Dreamily musing that a carbon tax might lead to "the funding of Social Security and Medicare, of the provision of universal health insurance," however, is about as philosophically libertarian as positing, "When people have a hard time predicting how their choices will end up affecting their lives, they have less to gain by numerous options and perhaps even by choosing for thems...

In biophilic sketching terms of what epistemic theories of maladies and nosologic theories of diseases involve in tautological ethical theories of clinical interrelationships between physicians and patients, we have accounted their assessments with the span boundaries of materialistic, socialistic, and spiritualistic conventional value systems of physicians' professional codes of ethics and natural and civic rights of patients. Our objectives in this paper are, first, to define what we mean by tautological and epistemological interpretations concerning both patients and physicians value systems. Second, we have indicated that diseases are essentially viewed as extrinsic affective causes and maladies are intrinsic effective consequences that are related to patients' illnesses and sicknes...

Over its history, the detective novel has had a dialogic relationship to the legal culture it depicts, undergoing transformations that reflect as well as affect those observed in the law. The degree to which the detective narrative is framed by a shared faith in a solution has diminished, and skepticism about both the factual and procedural aspects of detection and punishment has taken hold. Cavallaro explores the congruence between these fictional moves and the corresponding transformation of cultural attitudes about law and legal institutions.

Plenty of conservation organizations exist in the western United States. Some we dig, some we roll our eyes at and some that we can only admit to liking when we're at home with the shades drawn. Then there's the Idaho Conservation League. Executive Director Rick Johnson's utterly knowledgeable, professional crew has been on the forefront of just about every major environmental victory in Idaho in recent years, and this year has been no exception. Most recently, they got the proprietors of a planned gas-fired power plant east of Boise to agree to cut the plant's pollutant emissions by 50 percent. Before that, they were crucial in the process to change Idaho's shamefully lax laws governing cyanide-based gold mining. This summer, the ICL even sued to force Atlanta Gold Corp. to clean up pr...
