(c) Nick Bostrom , PhD Oxford University, Research Fellow Selected writings PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE Anthropic Bias: Observation Selection Effects in Science and Philosophy Academic Nick's Pick This book presents the first mathematically explicit theory of observation selection effects - an important kind of bias that infests many branches of science and philosophy. But we can tame them! There are implications for cosmology, evolutionary biology, the interpretation of quantum mechanics, the Doomsday argument, the Sleeping Beauty problem, the search for extraterrestrial life, the question of whether God exists, and traffic planning. There is not too much math and the results are explained verbally also. I've negotiated the right to make five sample chapters available online. [Routledge, New York, 2002] Self-Locating Belief in Big Worlds: Cosmology's Missing Link to Observation Academic Nick's Pick NEW Current cosmological theories say that the world is so big that all possible observations are in fact made. But then, how can we test them? What could count as negative evidence? - To answer that, we need to take into account observation selection effects. [Penultimate draft of paper

Interesting, easily recognized examples from daily life illustrate and explain the points that are made. Included Topics: "Who's to say" what is right or wrong? (And "Does morality depend on religion or what God says?") The meaning of terms such as 'good', 'bad', 'right', 'wrong', 'duty', 'ought', 'obligation', 'motive', 'consequences', 'intentions', etc.

PHIL 236.3 -- Ethics And Technology Forum
For students at the University of Saskatchewan and anyone who is interested in discussing issues related to ethics, philosophy and technology.
http://duke.usask.ca/~wjb289/PHL236/forum/

Extractions: About the the Forum The Ethics and Technology Forum is a perfectly ordinary (though reasonably full-featured) web-based bulletin board system (BBS). It exists for two main purposes: 1) to provide a forum for students in PHIL 236 at the University of Saskatchewan to discuss and ask questions about the course and, as a separate mandate, 2) to provide a forum for anyone who happens to be interested in discussing issues related to ethics, philosophy and technology. It's an experiment: I have no idea how popular or how useful it will turn out to be.
