Articles to Read, Things to Know
May 28, 2009 by ithinkthereforeib
Although I realise that you might be ignoring my postings at this point (though you do still get a grade for commenting), I will continue to share. I don’t believe that knowledge and learning stop once a particular deadline has been met or a report card has been issued. Plus, some of these articles are likely to contain excellent examples for your ToK essays!
So, peruse at your own leisure:
Mathematically Calculating Love: Yes, you have read correctly.
Gay Divorce Still Legal: Legal Messes….
Moving to Raze an Ancient City: Uighur Kashgar: I’m not sure what example there is in this – but it is an interesting, though saddening read. If nothing else, this article is to share with you some of our amazing human cultural heritage that, if you have the chance, you should go visit before it is destroyed.
Retouching Beauty: The Socio-cultural impact of photoshopping celebrities.
Human Language Gene Changes How Mice Squeak: Absolutely fascinating research into areas we know so little about…
More to come soon!

I read the math one. Didn’t like it. I think his point is not as connected to mathematics as I would like it to be in order to be amazed. He is just drawing conclusions from love and turning them into patterns, which he then connects to math. Problem is, math is made of patterns, but so is pretty much everything else. So making a connection between patterns of relationships and math doesn’t really work, in my view point.
