Lucidly presenting ideas about the rise of complexity in our genetic, neuronal, ecological, and ultimately cosmological settings, the author takes readers on a provocative tour of modern science's quest to understand our place in nature and in our universe. Readers fascinated with "Big History" and drawn to examine big ideas will be challenged and enthralled by Raymond L. Neubauer's ambitious narrative.How did humans emerge from the cosmos and the pre-biotic Earth, and what mechanisms of biological, chemical, and physical sciences drove this increasingly complex process? Neubauer presents a view of nature that describes the rising complexity of life in terms of increasing information content, first in genes and then in brains. The evolution of the nervous system expanded the capacity of organisms to store information, making learning possible. In key chapters, the author portrays four species with high brain:body ratios-chimpanzees, elephants, ravens, and dolphins-showing how each species shares with humans the capacity for complex communication, elaborate social relationships, flexible behavior, tool use, and powers of abstraction. A large brain can have a hierarchical arrangement of circuits that facilitates higher levels of abstraction.Neubauer describes this constellation of qualities as an emergent self, arguing that self-awareness is nascent in several species besides humans and that potential human characteristics are embedded in the evolutionary process and have emerged repeatedly in a variety of lineages on our planet. He ultimately demonstrates that human culture is not a unique offshoot of a language-specialized primate, but an analogue of fundamental mechanisms that organisms have used since the beginning of life on Earth to gather and process information in order to buffer themselves from fluctuations in the environment.Neubauer also views these developments in a cosmic setting, detailing open thermodynamic systems that grow more complex as the energy flowing through them increases. Similar processes of increasing complexity can be found in the "self-organizing" structures of both living and nonliving forms. Recent evidence from astronomy indicates that planet formation may be nearly as frequent as star formation. Since life makes use of the elements commonly seeded into space by burning and expiring stars, it is reasonable to speculate that the evolution of life and intelligence that happened on our planet may be found across the universe. 606 $aHuman evolution 606 $aHuman behavior 606 $aBehavior evolution 606 $aSocial evolution 606 $aAnimal behavior$xEvolution 606 $aEvolution (Biology) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHuman evolution. 615 0$aHuman behavior. 615 0$aBehavior evolution. 615 0$aSocial evolution. 615 0$aAnimal behavior$xEvolution. 615 0$aEvolution (Biology) 676 $a599.93/8 700 $aNeubauer$b Raymond L.$f1942-$01053875 701 $aYue$b Xuan$01053876 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457393003321 996 $aEvolution and the emergent self$92486018 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03569oam 2200601 450 001 9910337561903321 005 20210201142238.0 010 $a3-030-02420-2 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-02420-8 035 $a(OCoLC)1081000096 035 $a(MiFhGG)GVRL59R9 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000007335069 100 $a20210125h20192019 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun|---uuuua 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aLogic functions and equations $ebinary models for computer science /$fChristian Posthoff, Bernd Steinbach 205 $a2nd ed. 2019. 210 1$aCham, Switzerland :$cSpringer Nature,$d[2019] 210 4$d?2019 215 $a1 online resource (xvi, 508 pages) $cillustrations (some color), charts 225 0 $aGale eBooks 311 $a3-030-02419-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPart I Theoretical Foundations -- 1.

The approach emphasizes a thorough understanding of the fundamental principles as well as numerical and computer-based solution methods. Updated throughout, some major additions for the 2nd edition include: - an expanded introductory section on logic equations; - a new chapter on sets, lattices, and classes of logic functions; - a new chapter about SAT-problems; - a new chapter about methods to solve extremely complex problems; and -an expanded section with new decomposition methods utilizing the Boolean Differential Calculus extended to lattices of logic functions. The book provides insight into applications across binary arithmetic, coding, complexity, logic design, programming, computer architecture, and artificial intelligence. Based on the extensive teaching experience of the authors, Logic Functions and Equations is highly recommended for a one- or two-semester course in computer science and related programs. It provides straightforward high-level access to these methods and enables sophisticated applications, elegantly bridging the gap between mathematics and the theoretical foundations of computer science. 606 $aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical 606 $aMachine theory 606 $aAlgebra, Boolean 606 $aLogic design 606 $aComputational complexity 606 $aComputer engineering 606 $aComputer science 606 $aEngineering 615 0$aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical. 615 0$aMachine theory. 615 0$aAlgebra, Boolean. 615 0$aLogic design. 615 0$aComputational complexity. 615 0$aComputer engineering. 615 0$aComputer science. 615 0$aEngineering. 676 $a511.3 700 $aPosthoff$b Christian$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058852 702 $aSteinbach$b Bernd 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337561903321 996 $aLogic Functions and Equations$92502746 997 $aUNINA
