 | Social Systems by Dirk Baecker, Eva M. Knodt, John Bednarz, Niklas Luhmann
A major challenge confronting contemporary theory is to overcome its fixation on written narratives and the culture of print. In this presentation of a general theory of systems, Germany's most prominent and controversial social thinker sets out a contribution to sociology that reworks our understanding of meaning and communication. Luhmann responds to the theory crisis in sociology with a genealogy of his own, which includes a cybernetician (Heinz von Foerster), two evolutionary biologists (Humberto R. Maturana and Francisco Varela), and an obscure mathematician (George Spencer Brown), not to speak of the Devil Himself. This list of names defines a set of problems that explodes the boundaries of sociology by linking social theory to recent theoretical developments in scientific disciplines as diverse as modern physics, information theory, general systems theory, neurophysiology, phenomenology, and cognitive science. In these fields, the erosion of classical paradigms suggests, not the end of science, but a fundamental revision of its theoretical premises. AUTHOR: Dirk Baecker, Eva M. Knodt, John Bednarz, Niklas Luhmann

 | The Goldfish by Carlo DeVito, Gregory Skomal
This season marks the debut of books covering more than just dog breeds in the Happy, Healthy Pet series: Puppy Care and Training, Kitten Care and Training, and Goldfish. Like the breed books, these are titles pet owners can turn to for the essential information they need to raise a four-footed family member. The emphasis in all the books is on making your pet your friend, and the instruction is from experts -- people who not only know the breed of the pet intimately, but remember what it was like to have one for the first time. The Happy Healthy Pet guides are rich with professional quality color photos and are designed to be enjoyable and easy to learn from. Pet owners need no longer scramble for reliable information on their breed. -- The co-author is Marine Fisheries Biologist at Martha's Vineyard Fisheries AUTHOR: Carlo DeVito, Gregory Skomal
