This book was released on 2020-07-04 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Origin of Man's Ethical Behavior" (unpublished manuscript, 1941) was co-authored by biologist Ernest Everett Just and research-associate-philosopher and spouse Hedwig A. Schnetzler Just. In the opening chapter "The Problem Stated," they reject the idea that moral theory (theory of ethics) should be restricted to religion and philosophy. Just and Just say: "... we intend to treat ethics as a problem in biology ... It is within the field of biology, then, that we locate human ethics, or better to say, man's ethical behavior" (Just and Just 1941: 2-3 [also 4, 91, 146]). Here, theory of evolution is profoundly enriched and advanced by linking (a) primitive cellular origins and subsequent evolution of physical structures and functions to (b) primitive cellular origins and subsequent evolution of spiritual relations and ethical behaviors. The origin and evolution of human organic physicality is mutually dependent upon the origin and evolution of spirituality and ethics. Theory of ethical behavior is essential to efficacious theory of organic evolution. ---- "... the efficacy of any theory of the cause of organic evolution is measured by the degree to which it is capable of sustaining the superstructure of a theory of the origin and evolution of man's ethical behavior" (Just and Just 1941: 16). ---- Evolutionary biology and evolutionary ethics require each other. Here also is a pioneering formulation of the law of environmental dependence. Governed by a comprehensive law of environmental dependence (upon cooperative interactivity with others and with the living environment), and in tandem with the evolution of biophysical structures and functions, ethical behavior "evolved" from our "very most primitive fore-runner" (Just and Just 1941: 12 [also 17]), from cells to humans. Evolutionary biology + evolutionary ethics = evolutionary bioethics. And with appreciation for evolution as a continuing process, and despite E. E. Just's life-long experiences with Anglo-American anti-black racism and his August 1940 internment and September 1940 dramatic escape from Nazi-occupied France, Just and Just conceived that humanity is "on the threshold" of further evolution in ethical behavior (Just and Just 1941: 176). Tragically, E. E. Just died (from pancreatic cancer in October 1941) before finding a publisher willing to print a book connecting biology to ethics and environmental dependence (decades before bioethics and environmental relations were popular concerns). And the 1941 manuscript was lost to the public. Fortunately, nearly 77 years later, among the collected papers of Ernest Everett Just at the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center at Howard University, pages and copies of pages from this unpublished book manuscript (onion-skin and carbon copies of typed pages, plus typed and handwritten pages; minus annotated bibliography, lab notes, graphics, and final pages of chapter 9) were found, identified, reassembled, and transcribed from ink-on-paper to Word documents created by Theodore Walker Jr. and Lillie R. Jenkins during the spring and summer of 2018. And through 2019-2020, there was further transcribing (plus adding final pages of chapter 9 from previously discovered, by Kenneth R. Manning, handwritten drafts) and co-editing by Walker, Jenkins, and W. Malcolm Byrnes, in consultation with Stuart Newman, Kenneth R. Manning, Charles H. Long, and Moorland-Spingarn curator of manuscripts Joellen ElBashir. This book is soon to be published with supplemental commentaries under a gender inclusive (and evolution inclusive) title and subtitle: The Biological Origin and Evolution of Ethical Behavior: From Cells to Humans (2020 or 2021). Meanwhile, this July 2020 archival edition retains the original title, and original manuscript page breaks and numbers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astrophilosopy, Exotheology, and Cosmic Religion: Extraterrestrial Life in a Process Universe applies Alfred North Whitehead’s process philosophy and the associated process philosophies of Henri Bergson, Teilhard de Chardin, and others to the interdisciplinary layers of astrobiology, extraterrestrial life, and the impact of discovery. This collection, edited by Andrew M. Davis and Roland Faber, asks questions such as “How have process thinkers imagined universal creative evolution and its implications for philosophies, theologies, and religions beyond earth?” and “How might their claims as to the primacy of organism, temporality, novelty, value, and mind enrich current discussions and debates across disciplines?” As experts in their fields, the contributors are informed by, but not limited to, process conceptualities. The chapters not only advance recent discussions in astrobiology, cosmology, and evolution but also consider a constellation of philosophical topics, from shared extraterrestrial knowledge and values to the possibilities or limitations afforded by A.I. technology, the Fermi Paradox, the Drake Equation, and the increasing need to nurture the cosmic dimensions of theological and religious traditions.

Book excerpt: Genocide—the intent to destroy in whole or in part, a group of people. TIME's 42 Most Anticipated Books of Fall 2019 Book Riot's 50 of the Best Books to Read This Fall As seen on CBS This Morning, award-winning attorney Ben Crump exposes a heinous truth in Open Season: Whether with a bullet or a lengthy prison sentence, America is killing black people and justifying it legally. While some deaths make headlines, most are personal tragedies suffered within families and communities. Worse, these killings are done one person at a time, so as not to raise alarm. While it is much more difficult to justify killing many people at once, in dramatic fashion, the result is the same—genocide. Taking on such high-profile cases as George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and a host of others, Crump witnessed the disparities within the American legal system firsthand and learned it is dangerous to be a black man in America—and that the justice system indeed only protects wealthy white men. In this enlightening and enthralling work, he shows that there is a persistent, prevailing, and destructive mindset regarding colored people that is rooted in our history as a slaveowning nation. This biased attitude has given rise to mass incarceration, voter disenfranchisement, unequal educational opportunities, disparate health care practices, job and housing discrimination, police brutality, and an unequal justice system. And all mask the silent and ongoing systematic killing of people of color. Open Season is more than Crump’s incredible mission to preserve justice, it is a call to action for Americans to begin living up to the promise to protect the rights of its citizens equally and without question.

Book excerpt: Panpsychism has become a highly attractive position in the philosophy of mind. On panpsychism, both the physical and the mental are inseparable and fundamental features of reality. Panentheism has also become immensely popular in the philosophy of religion. Panentheism strives for a higher reconciliation of an atheistic pantheism, on which the universe itself is causa sui, and the ontological dualism of necessarily existing, eternal creator and contingent, finite creation. Historically and systematically, panpsychism and panentheism often went together as essential parts of an all-embracing metaphysical theory of Being. The present collection of essays analyses the relation between panpsychism and panentheism and provides critical reflections on the significance of panpsychistic and panentheistic thinking for recent debates in philosophy and theology.

Book excerpt: Van Rensselaer Potter created and defined the term "bioethics" in 1970, to describe a new philosophy that sought to integrate biology, ecology, medicine, and human values. Bioethics is often linked to environmental ethics and stands in sharp contrast to biomedical ethics. Because of this confusion (and appropriation of the term in medicine), Potter chose to use the term "Global Bioethics" in 1988. Potter's definition of bioethics from Global Bioethics is, "Biology combined with diverse humanistic knowledge forging a science that sets a system of medical and environmental priorities for acceptable survival."

Book excerpt: Here is a study in theological social ethics for North American black churches. It aims to present a conception of liberty/freedom and a liberating social ethic, both relentlessly informed by a black churchly understanding of ourselves in relation to God. There are two main questions: How should we conceive of liberty/freedom? and What should contemporary black churches do in order to contribute to the continuing struggle for liberty? Answers derive from consulting black church history, black theology and the philosophy of black power. Also, the descriptions, predictions and public policy prescriptions of liberal and black sociologies are evaluated from a black churchly perspective. Rightly conceived, liberty/freedom includes comprehensive social-economic-political empowerment and righteous relations to God and others. Accordingly, we church folk should empower the people through an ethic of breaking bread. The religious and social stakes are high. Where bread is not broken, Jesus is not recognized, God is not served, and the people are not free.

Book excerpt: Bringing a black Atlantic approach to constructive postmodern efforts to understand and transcend modern worldviews and modern world orders, Mothership Connections draws upon the work of scholars in the tradition of W. E. B. Du Bois, Charles H. Long, Alfred North Whitehead, and Charles Hartshorne. The author shows that connections to the originating influences of transatlantic slavery and black Atlantic experiences are essential to any adequate account of modernity and postmodernity. He also argues that metaphysics is essential to theology and moral theory, synthesizing neoclassical metaphysics and black theology to develop a black Atlantic account of metaphysical aspects of struggle, power, and ethical deliberation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morality is often defined in opposition to the natural "instincts," or as a tool to keep those instincts in check. New findings in neuroscience, social psychology, animal behavior, and anthropology have brought us back to the original Darwinian position that moral behavior is continuous with the social behavior of animals, and most likely evolved to enhance the cooperativeness of society. In this view, morality is part of human nature rather than its opposite. This interdisciplinary volume debates the origin and working of human morality within the context of science as well as religion and philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unheralded military hero, Charles Young (1864–1922) was the third black graduate of West Point, the first African American national park superintendent, the first black U.S. military attaché, the first African American officer to command a Regular Army regiment, and the highest-ranking black officer in the Regular Army until his death. Black Officer in a Buffalo Soldier Regiment tells the story of the man who—willingly or not—served as a standard-bearer for his race in the officer corps for nearly thirty years, and who, if not for racial prejudice, would have become the first African American general. Brian G. Shellum describes how, during his remarkable army career, Young was shuffled among the few assignments deemed suitable for a black officer in a white man’s army—the Buffalo Soldier regiments, an African American college, and diplomatic posts in black republics such as Liberia. Nonetheless, he used his experience to establish himself as an exceptional cavalry officer. He was a colonel on the eve of the United States’ entry into World War I, when serious medical problems and racial intolerance denied him command and ended his career. Shellum’s book seeks to restore a hero to the ranks of military history; at the same time, it informs our understanding of the role of race in the history of the American military.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles H. Long is one of the most influential and pioneering scholars in the study of religion from the past 50 years. This is the first comprehensive collection of his writings, edited by Long himself, and contains 38 pieces, including both published and previously unpublished articles, lectures, an interview, and two book reviews. The foreword is provided by Jennifer Reid, a former student of Long. The collection is divided into four thematic parts: America and the Study of Religion; Theory and Method in the Study of Religion; African American Religion in the United States; Kindling, Embers and Sparks. Long's introduction provides much-awaited insight into his reflections on his work, expanding on questions that remained unanswered in his classic and influential text, Significations: Signs, Symbols and Images in the Interpretation of Images (1986). In particular, the new introductory essay explores the significance of “ellipses”, that which is omitted, the projected spaces of the Other in the study of religion. Considered the preeminent founder and advocate of the study of Black Religion, Long was exploring religion and colonialism and the importance of Afro-American religion as early as the 1960s and early 1970s, and this collection of his thinking – which moves across the formations of religious studies, African diasporic studies, and social and cultural theory – is a must-have addition for any institutional or personal library.
