A System of Logic: Ratiocinative and Inductive by John Stuart Mill
Publisher: University Press of the Pacific | Number Of Pages: 622 | Publication Date: 2002-09 | ISBN-10: 1410202526 | PDF | 41 Mb
Mill’s Logic, first published in 1843, became an instant cult book, and firmly established Mill as the leader of the empirical school of logic. A System of Logic is the first major installment of his comprehensive restatement of an empiricist and utilitarian position. It begins the attack on “intuitionism” which Mill carried on throughout his life, and makes plain his belief that social planning and political action should rely primarily on scientific knowledge, not on authority, custom, revelation, or prescription.

Applications of Computational Intelligence in Biology: Current Trends and Open Problems
Springer | Pages: 428 | 2008 | ISBN: 3540785337 | 5 MB | PDF

The purpose of this book is to provide a medium for an exchange of expertise and concerns. In order to achieve the goal, the editors have solicited contributions from both computational intelligence as well as biology researchers. They have collected contributions from the CI community describing powerful new methodologies that could, or currently are, utilized for biology-oriented applications. On the other hand, the book also contains chapters devoted to open problems in biology that are in need of strong computational techniques, so the CI community can find a brand new and potentially intriguing spectrum of applications.
