Darwin's Pharmacy weaves the evolutionary theory of sexual selection and the study of rhetoric together with the science and literature of psychedelic drugs. Long suppressed as components of the human tool kit, psychedelic plants can be usefully modeled as "eloquence adjuncts" that intensify a crucial component of sexual selection in humans: discourse. In doing so, they engage our awareness of the noo˜sphere, defined by V.I. Vernadsky as the thinking stratum of the earth, the realm of consciousness feeding back onto the biosphere. Sharing intelligence, connecting with the noo˜sphere and integrating individuality into its ecosystemic context offers powerful and promising ways to respond to ecosystems in crisis, and formed the backdrop of what Doyle dubs the "ecodelic" thought of the environmental movement. Yet current policies criminalize the use of plant-based psychedelics while simultaneously feeding a violent global black market for refined and chemically-derived drugs.In this tour de force of "first-person science," Doyle takes his readers on a mind bending journey through the work of William Burroughs, Kary Mullis, Lynn Margulis, Timothy Leary, Norma Panduro, Albert Hoffman, Aldous Huxley, Dennis and Terrence McKenna, John Lilly and Phillip K. Dick. Readers who take the journey that is Darwin's Pharmacy will experience extraordinary insights into evolutionary theory, the war on drugs, the internet, and the nature of human consciousness itself. Richard M. Doyle is professor of English and science, technology, and society at Pennsylvania State University. He is the author of On Beyond Living and Wetwares"Darwin's Pharmacy is a significant achievement, a brilliant, ambitious, original piece of pedagogy. I can't imagine anybody but Doyle who could control and mobilize in the name of a single vision the range and dizzying variety of the material on offer." -Brian Rotman, Ohio State University"Darwin's Pharmacy is a beautiful book-poetry in prose and modern music in print. It is a book for all readers who have ever wondered whether dreams are another form or a different part of wakened consciousness and reality. Doyle dispenses with dualism and parallelism, expanding wonder from dreams to ecodelic states and the possibilities and difficulties of communication about these states via language." -Stanley Shostak, University of Pittsburgh"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aBiology$xPhilosophy 606 $aGaia hypothesis 606 $aBiosphere 606 $aHallucinogenic plants$xPsychic aspects 606 $aHallucinogenic drugs$xPsychological aspects 606 $aConsciousness 606 $aSexual selection in animals 606 $aRhetoric$xPhilosophy 615 0$aBiology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aGaia hypothesis. 615 0$aBiosphere. 615 0$aHallucinogenic plants$xPsychic aspects. 615 0$aHallucinogenic drugs$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aConsciousness. 615 0$aSexual selection in animals. 615 0$aRhetoric$xPhilosophy. 676 $a570.1 686 $aSCI027000$aSCI029000$aLAN015000$2bisacsh 700 $aDoyle$b Richard$f1963-$01504165 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781989803321 996 $aDarwin's pharmacy$93785330 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03056oam 2200505 450 001 9910793938303321 005 20240130173426.0 010 $a1-949539-64-4 035 $a(OCoLC)1130322691 035 $a(MiFhGG)GVRL59S4 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010160141 100 $a20191202d2020 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun#---uuuua 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aProfessional learning communities at work and high reliability schools $ecultures of continuous learning /$feditors, Robert Eaker and Robert J.

With this proposition in mind, authors Robert Eaker and Robert J. Marzano work with numerous contributors to both explore the HRS model and examine its role within the PLC framework. Readers will study each level of the HRS model and the ways in which a successful implementation of the model improves education. Then, readers will be provided with a concrete example of that level of the model at work in a successfully implemented PLC at Work system. Throughout this anthology, readers will learn from the best of America's educators as each chapter is written by an educator with a deep, comprehensive understanding of either the HRS model or the PLC at Work Framework. Using this book, readers will see how the merging of the HRS model and the PLC at Work framework leads to vastly improved schooling for all students"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aLeading edge (Bloomington, Ind.) 606 $aTeachers$xProfessional relationships 606 $aTeachers$xIn-service training 606 $aSchool improvement programs 610 $aProfessional learning communities 615 0$aTeachers$xProfessional relationships. 615 0$aTeachers$xIn-service training. 615 0$aSchool improvement programs. 676 $a371.1 700 $aEaker$b Robert E.$0885313 702 $aEaker$b Robert E. 702 $aMarzano$b Robert J. 702 $aAcosta$b Mario I. 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793938303321 996 $aProfessional learning communities at work and high reliability schools$93677284 997 $aUNINA
