Eleven part divisions cover: Dewey in Context; Reconstructing Philosophy; Evolutionary Naturalism; Pragmatic Metaphysics; Habit, Conduct, and Language; Meaning, Truth, and Inquiry; Valuation and Ethics; The Aims of Education; The Individual, the Community, and Democracy; Pragmatism and Culture Science and Technologyy, Art and Religion; and Interpretations and Critiques.
The largely taxon-based chapters are supplemented by essays on topical aspects relevant to modern-day EvoDevo research such as regeneration, embryos in the fossil record, homology in the age of genomics and the role of EvoDevo in the context of reconstructing evolutionary and phylogenetic scenarios.
The juxtaposition of archeological and linguistic data, where possible, in conjunction with the genetic data, provided a broad context for reconstructing the human past of the southern African region.
Gene trees that arise in the context of reconstructing the evolutionary history of polyploid species are often multiply-labeled, that is, the same leaf label can occur several times in a single tree.
A future case study of Borana women of northern Kenya will address these questions by broadly situating their experiences in social, economic and political changes and, most importantly, in the Borana cultural context to reconstruct women's roles in post-colonial era.
We formally describe N. komaci sp. nov., the largest web spinning species known, and place the species in phylogenetic context to reconstruct the evolution of mean size (via squared change parsimony).
To insert our data in the appropriate biological context, we reconstructed the molecular networks regulated at steady state by DE miRNAs in α and β cells.
Variations in angiosperm DNA content (Bennett and Leitch 2005) have been interpreted in a robust phylogenetic context to reconstruct genome size evolution, revealing the ancestral genome size to be relatively small (1.4 pg/1 C) (Soltis et al. 2003).
Workshop 3: "Dance of the skeletons" Goals: To introduce the role of the skeleton in the physiological balance of the human body; to clarify the importance of recovering human skeletal remains from archaeological contexts to reconstruct past populations' history and evolution.
Most importantly, however, activity theory helps technology developers build relationships with the people whose work they seek to impact: as Kuutti points out, activity theory "…aims at reconstructing contexts in practice so that people are not just objects or subordinate parts, but regain their role as creators" [43].
Several scenarios can lead to the same observations and, without the possibility of reconstructing the context, could lead to a number of possible interpretations.
