This first volume of Facets of Faith and Science explores the specific roles of metaphysical and religious beliefs in explanation and theory construction in the natural sciences. The contributors survey modes of interaction between religion and science with special attention for the sensitivities required for their historiography. Historical studies are used to construct models integrating religion and science, and reasons are offered why religion and science should or should not interact.

The Merits of Flexible Exchange Rates: An Anthology

This anthology of significant writings by eminent economists is, in part, a critique of the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates, which was very successful at the time it was instituted but which, because of its rigidity, failed in the end to address the economic problems of the post-war era. The authors suggest that the stock market crash of 1987 might not have occurred if market forces had been allowed simply to run their course in the absence of any real economic restrictions. Contributors include: Harry Johnson, Fritz Machlup, Milton Friedman, Gottfried Haberler, Henry Wallich, Alan Greenspan, Leo Melamed, Jacques de Larosiere, Beryl Sprinkel, Michael L. Mussa, Martin Feldstein, Jacob Frenkel, Rudiger Dornbusch, Morris Goldstein, Rachel McCulloch, Paul R. Krugman, William H. Branson, Thomas D. Willett, J. Carter Murphy.

This fifth volume in the George Mason Lecture Series analyzes contemporary separation of powers in the American political system and offers answers to the following questions: what is the relationship, if any, of American separation of powers to the older concept of mixed government?, and what is the connection between the governmental organization of separated powers and the political goal of checks and balances? Contents: The Allocation of Powers: The Framers' Intent, by Louis Fisher; Some Bicentennial Thoughts about Congress: Then, Now and in the Future, by Michael J. Malbin; The Changing Nature of the Presidency, by Dorothy Buckton James; Supreme Court Enforcement of Separation of Powers: A Balance Sheet, by J. Woodford Howard, Jr.

Politics & Government

Americans are justly proud of their tradition of representative government. In fact, America's is the longest continuous representative government in existence. Ironically, it may be that, because of the two hundred uninterrupted years of the republic's existence, we take it for granted that we view its continuation as guaranteed. Although our republic has endured for more than two hundred years, it has not always existed in its present "form," it has not always represented many people who now routinely view its protections and guarantees as birthrights. The unlanded masses, women, blacks and other minorities, all were for a great part of our history not represented in the American body politic. Now all of these groups, at least legally speaking, are full participants in the body politic and in the public affairs of this country.This volume examines the development of the American notion of popular sovereignty from its colonial and revolutionary origins, from the days of its severely restricted meaning through its progress toward inclusion of more of "the people."Four distinguished commentators examine the social and political developments that have accompanied the growth and expansion of "the will of the people."
