Recent advances in the disciplines of computer science (e.g., quantum theory, artificial intelligence), biotechnology and nanotechnology have deeply modified the structures of knowledge from which military capabilities are likely to develop. This book discusses the implications of disruptive technologies for the defence innovation ecosystem. Two complementary dimensions of the defence innovation ecosystem are highlighted: the industrial and intra-organizational. On the industrial scale, there is a shift in the ecology of knowledge underpinning the defence industrial and technological base (DITB). At the intra-organizational level, it is the actors' practices that change and, through them, their skills and the processes by which they are acquired and transferred. In this context, the sources and legitimacy of innovation are being transformed, in turn requiring sometimes radical adaptations on the part of the various actors, including companies, military services, research communities and governmental agencies, which make up the defence innovation ecosystem.

Mennesker skaper fortellinger, og organiserer fortellingene sin i henhold til kulturelt tilgjengelige fortellinger. Over tid blir narrativer akseptert eller avvist som evaluerende versjoner av fortiden, nåtiden og fremtiden. Noen blir dominerende fortellinger, andre blir motstandsfortellinger. Fortellinger antar moralske perspektiver, og forklarer ikke bare hva som skjedde og hva det betyr, men også hva som burde ha skjedd eller hva historiene skulle betydd.Boka Narrativ metode er en innføringsbok for de som ønsker å forske på fortellinger. I boka går forfatteren gjennom et utvalg av de muligheter som finnes i narrative metoder, og svarer på spørsmål som:hva er særegent med fortellinger? hvordan, og når, benyttes fortellinger i fag og forskning? hvordan kan vi arbeide med fortellinger? hvordan analyserer vi narrativer?Narrativ metode er skrevet for studenter og forskere i samfunnsvitenskapelige og helsevitenskapelige fag, samt pedagogikk. Den vil også være nyttig for andre som jobber med fortellinger og forskning.

From Brain Dynamics to the Mind: Spatiotemporal Neuroscience explores how the self and consciousness is related to neural events. Sections in the book cover existing models used to describe the mind/brain problem, recent research on brain mechanisms and processes and what they tell us about the self, consciousness and psychiatric disorders. The book presents a spatiotemporal approach to understanding the brain and the implications for artificial intelligence, novel therapies for psychiatric disorders, and for ethical, societal and philosophical issues. Pulling concepts from neuroscience, psychology and philosophy, the book presents a modern and complete look at what we know, what we can surmise, and what we may never know about the distinction between brain and mind.
