Ebook "Homo novus - A human without illusions" converging evidence from disciplines including sociobiology, evolutionary psychology and human biology forces us to adopt a new idea of what it means to be a human. As cherished concepts such as free will, naïve realism, humans as creation's crowning glory fall and our moral roots in ape group dynamics become clearer, we have to take leave of many concepts that have been central to defining our humanness.

Using colorful examples from the most important aspects of life, Thaler and Sunstein demonstrate how thoughtful “choice architecture” can be established to nudge us in beneficial directions without restricting freedom of choice.

In this paper, we propose the next version of Use-case Specification Language (USL) that allows us to formally specify each use case at the user's requirement level with a single model, and without using the detailed use case design. We also propose a formal specification method for the functional requirements. The formal requirement specification can be used to automatically generate system level test cases.

Our earlier lectures have introduced us about investment analysis and defined the concept of a security. It has looked at the securities that are traded and where they are traded. In addition, it has begun the development of the concepts of risk and return that characterize securities. The fact that these are related - an investor cannot have more of one without more of another - has been stressed. This theme will recur throughout the book. The chapter has also emphasized the role of uncertainty in investment analysis. This, too, is a continuing theme.

This paper study a symmetric fishnet metamaterial working in the M-band (60 - 100 GHz). Significant effects of the dielectric spacer and the metal pattern on the electromagnetic response are investigated. It is found that the left-handed peak was shifted, enhanced or even destroyed by changing the thickness and the permittivity of the dielectric spacer. In addition, we also present the effect of metal pattern properties on the left-handed transmission spectra. The effective medium parameters are calculated using the standard retrieval method.

The paper investigates the effects of domestic vs. external debt on money demand using US data from 1966Q1 to 2011Q1 period. The cointegration analysis reveals that there is no long-term equilibrium between external debt and money demand, suggesting the US government fails to effectively convert the proceeds from public debt into increased perceived private wealth. On the other hand, the existence of a long run positive correction between domestic debt and money demand implies that domestic bondholders view interest income as extra wealth, without fully discount future tax liabilities.

Lupus nephritis (LN) carries high morbidity and mortality and whenever added to neuropsychiatric manifestations lead to more unfavorable prognosis. Though silent brain MRI findings in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) had been widely studied, the current work focused on LN patients comparing them to those without kidney affection, studying their cerebral MRI and its correlation with the histopathological classes of LN and disease activity. This may enable us to know more about early brain affection in LN patients for better follow up, management, and prognosis of this serious comorbidity.

Investing in education is generally considered as a promising strategy to fight poverty and increase prosperity. This applies to all levels of an economy reaching from individuals to local communities and countries and has a global perspective as well. However, high-quality education is often costly and not available anytime anywhere. Therefore, any promising concept that might help to democratize education is worth pursuing, in a sense that it makes education accessible for everybody without any restrictions.
