The article argues that the logical argument from evil is dead, and new version presented by James Sterba cannot resurrect it. In first part, I say dead either because, in given Mackie, it was successfully refuted Plantinga other theists or inviting a reformulation of theistic doctrines, nevertheless superseded contemporary versions theism, such as open theism. second argue two significant move...

According to John Mackie, moral talk is representational (the realists go that bit right) but its metaphysical presuppositions are wildly implausible (the non-cognitivists got that bit right). This is the basis of Mackie’s now famous error theory: that moral judgments are cognitively meaningful but systematically false. Of course, Mackie went on to recommend various substantive moral judgments,...

Patent and antitrust policy are often presumed to be in conflict. As an important example, there is ongoing controversy about whether price discrimination by a patent holder is an illegal or socially undesirable exploitation of monopoly power. In this article. we show that no conflict exists in many price discrimination cases. Even ignoring the (dynamic) effects on incentives for innovation, th...

The genus Klebsiella contains Gram negative, capsulated, non-motile bacilli, belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family (Mackie, 1999). There are five species under this genus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella planticola, Klebsiella terrigena, and Klebsiella ornithinolytica. Amongst them, the most common opportunistic and nosocomial pathogen is Klebsiella pneumoniae causing...

Dramatic increases in the capabilities and decreases in the costs of computers and communication networks have fomented revolutionary thoughts in the scholarly publishing community. In one dimension, traditional pricing schemes and product packages are being modified or replaced. We designed and undertook a large-scale field experiment in pricing and bundling for electronic access to scholarly ...

Siphonophores are large, abundant, and ecologically important oceanic hydrozoans (Totton, 1965; Kirkpatrick & Pugh, 1984). There are approximately 160 described species, but this is a biased sample of siphonophore diversity that is skewed in favour of robust species found at shallow depths. Recent innovations in collection technology, especially the improvement of research submersibles, have re...
