http://leftinthedark.org.uk/book http://leftinthedark.org.uk/book [0] is a take on Jayne's ideas, going much farther in one particular direction. Supposed to be well backed by references - I didn't try to follow them (the reference style leaves much to be desired, and is on its own a signal of low scientific quality). But it is extremely interesting and thought provoking.
[0] I read the first edition. I don't know how the recent one differs, if at all.
- gwern 12y agoI read that. A lot of the biology is nonsense. (While Jaynes is also unlikely to be true, there it's more that it's a daring idea confined to high-level description and speculation, rather than incoherent gibberish about DNA and fruits.)
