During the 1970s, Barwise and Seligman took the situation-theoretic approach to information and took away much of the technical machinery for handling situations, relations and types, to produce an abstract mathematical account of information flow. Their motivating idea is that information flow is made possible by regularities in systems. Rather than develop machinery for analyzing those regula...

Reading the special issue of the American Psychologist (January 2000) on the contemporary, data-based movement of positive psychology was an uplifting experience in itself. Positive psychology seems to emerge as a renewed humanistic approach to the individual and collective potential for happiness, but this time it is strengthened by empirical data and adequate research methodologies. Seligman ...

In the past few years there has been renewed interest in the study of serum cholinesterase in various disease states, particularly those affecting the liver. Recently, a colorimetric method for the determination of this enzyme in the serum was reported by Ravin, Tsou, and Seligman (1). Their method, simple to perform, is as accurate as the gastrometric technique and more specific than the elect...

Explanatory style and dispositional optimism have been linked to physical health. In this issue, Peterson and Seligman and Carver and Scheier review an impressive series of studies which together suggest that there may be health risks associated with attributing bad outcomes to internal, stable, and global causes and with failing to maintain a generalized expectancy for good outcomes. We attemp...

Open Information Interoperability (OpenII) is a collaborative effort spearheaded by MITRE and Google to produce an extensible, open source information interoperability toolkit [Seligman]. OpenII makes it faster and cheaper to build information exchanges when the sending and receiving systems differ in how they represent related information. Because the software is all open source, it can be fre...

This paper unifies and/or generalizes several approaches to information, including the information flow of Barwise and Seligman, the formal conceptual analysis of Wille, the lattice of theories of Sowa, the categorical general systems theory of Goguen, and the cognitive semantic theories of Fauconnier, Turner, Gärdenfors, and others. Its rigorous approach uses category theory to achieve indepen...
