"The Human Paradigm"

[edit]

(Lengthy and not apparently relevant Christian tract that was anonymously pasted here moved to Talk:Paradigm/Tract. -- Jmabel 17:32, Oct 8, 2004 (UTC)

Gebser's new consciousness

[edit]

I think it would be relevant to insert a paragraph or so about Jean Gebser's theories on change in consciousness. FJ | hello 08:16, May 10, 2005 (UTC)

  • Go for it. -- Jmabel | Talk 17:33, May 10, 2005 (UTC)

Cybernetics

[edit]

Is there any citation for the claimed use of this term in cybernetics? -- Jmabel | Talk 05:12, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)

Dubious reference

[edit]

The following "reference" was recently added to the article, without comment, by an anonymous contributor who does not appear to have made any other contributions to the article:

  • Clarke, Thomas and Clegg, Stewart (eds) (2000) "Changing Paradigms" London: HarperCollins ISBN 0006387314

This is a business book. I seriously doubt that it was used as a reference in the article. If no one responds in the next week or so to say what in the article is referenced from this source, I would like to remove it. -- 02:33, August 31, 2005 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmabel (talkcontribs)

Newtonian Dynamics

[edit]

From article: " (Newtonian mechanics is an excellent approximation for speeds that are slow compared to the speed of light)."

Is this a safe statement? Isn't this presuming that the MOND vs Dark Matter debate has resolved to the MOND side?

Excuse my ignorance if I'm missing the point. I haven't made any changes to the article, as I may well be just misreading or misunderstanding the point. --Leigh (24 Feb 2006)
