Laws
"This is a superb new translation that is remarkably accurate to Plato's very difficult Greek, yet clear and highly readable.The notes are more helpful than those in any other available translation of the Laws since they contain both the information needed by the beginning student as well as analytical notes that include references to the secondary literature for the more advanced reader.For either the beginner or the scholar, this should be the preferred translation."—Christopher Bobonich, Clarence Irving Lewis Professor of Philosophy, Stanford University

Monitoring Laws : Profiling and Identity in the World State
Our world and the people within it are increasingly interpreted and classified by automated systems.At the same time, automated classifications influence what happens in the physical world.These entanglements change what it means to interact with governance, and shift what elements of our identity are knowable and meaningful.In this cyber-physical world, or 'world state', what is the role for law?Specifically, how should law address the claim that computational systems know us better than we know ourselves?Monitoring Laws traces the history of government profiling from the invention of photography through to emerging applications of computer vision for personality and behavioral analysis.It asks what dimensions of profiling have provoked legal intervention in the past, and what is different about contemporary profiling that requires updating our legal tools.This work should be read by anyone interested in how computation is changing society and governance, and what it is about people that law should protect in a computational world.

The Laws
In the Laws, Plato describes in fascinating detail a comprehensive system of legislation in a small agricultural utopia he named Magnesia.His laws not only govern crime and punishment, but also form a code of conduct for all aspects of life in his ideal state - from education, sport and religion to sexual behaviour, marriage and drinking parties.Plato sets out a plan for the day-to-day rule of Magnesia, administered by citizens and elected officials, with supreme power held by a Council.Although Plato's views that citizens should act in complete obedience to the law have been read as totalitarian, the Laws nonetheless constitutes a highly impressive programme for the reform of society and provides a crucial insight into the mind of one of Classical Greece's foremost thinkers.

What are noise protection laws?
Noise protection laws are regulations put in place to limit the amount of noise that can be emitted from various sources, such as industrial facilities, construction sites, and vehicles. These laws aim to protect individuals and communities from excessive noise pollution, which can have negative impacts on health and well-being. Noise protection laws often set specific noise level limits for different types of activities and provide guidelines for mitigating noise through the use of sound barriers, insulation, and other measures. Violations of noise protection laws can result in fines and other penalties.

Are economic laws natural laws and psychological laws?
Economic laws are not natural laws in the same sense as the laws of physics or chemistry, as they are not inherent to the physical world. Instead, economic laws are principles that describe patterns and behaviors in human economic activity. Similarly, psychological laws are not natural laws, but rather principles that describe patterns and behaviors in human psychology. Both economic and psychological laws are based on human behavior and interactions, rather than the physical world, and are subject to change as human behavior and society evolve.

Which laws are objection laws?
Objection laws are laws that allow individuals or organizations to refuse to comply with certain regulations or requirements based on their religious or moral beliefs. These laws often pertain to issues such as healthcare, employment, or services provided to the public. Critics argue that objection laws can lead to discrimination and harm certain groups of people, particularly marginalized communities.
-
Why are there consent laws and objection laws?
Consent laws are in place to ensure that individuals have the legal capacity to give informed consent to certain activities, such as medical treatment, sexual activity, or contracts. These laws are designed to protect individuals from being coerced or manipulated into situations they do not fully understand or agree to. Objection laws, on the other hand, allow individuals to legally object to certain activities or decisions, such as medical treatment or marriage, based on their personal beliefs or values. These laws are in place to protect individuals' rights to make decisions that align with their own moral or religious convictions. Both consent and objection laws are important for safeguarding individuals' autonomy and rights.

Laws of Seeing
The first English translation of a classic work in vision science from 1936 by a leading figure in the Gestalt movement, covering topics that continue to be major issues in vision research today. This classic work in vision science, written by a leading figure in Germany's Gestalt movement in psychology and first published in 1936, addresses topics that remain of major interest to vision researchers today.Wolfgang Metzger's main argument, drawn from Gestalt theory, is that the objects we perceive in visual experience are not the objects themselves but perceptual effigies of those objects constructed by our brain according to natural rules.Gestalt concepts are currently being increasingly integrated into mainstream neuroscience by researchers proposing network processing beyond the classical receptive field.Metzger's discussion of such topics as ambiguous figures, hidden forms, camouflage, shadows and depth, and three-dimensional representations in paintings will interest anyone working in the field of vision and perception, including psychologists, biologists, neurophysiologists, and researchers in computational vision-and artists, designers, and philosophers. Each chapter is accompanied by compelling visual demonstrations of the phenomena described; the book includes 194 illustrations, drawn from visual science, art, and everyday experience, that invite readers to verify Metzger's observations for themselves.Today's researchers may find themselves pondering the intriguing question of what effect Metzger's theories might have had on vision research if Laws of Seeing and its treasure trove of perceptual observations had been available to the English-speaking world at the time of its writing.

Laws in Nature
Mumford outlines a major new theory of natural laws.His book begins with the question of whether there are any genuinely law-like phenomena in nature.The discussion addresses questions currently being debated by metaphysicians such as whether the laws of nature are necessary or contingent and whether a property can be identified independently of its causal role.

Why do animals still get used despite animal protection laws?
Despite the existence of animal protection laws, animals are still used for various purposes due to a combination of factors. These include loopholes in the laws that allow for certain types of animal use, lack of enforcement or resources to monitor and ensure compliance with the laws, and the influence of industries that profit from animal use. Additionally, cultural norms and traditions in some societies may also play a role in perpetuating the use of animals despite legal protections.

How do you distinguish good laws from fair laws?
Good laws are those that are effective in promoting the well-being and safety of society, while fair laws are those that are just and equitable in their application to all individuals. Good laws are practical and achieve their intended purpose, while fair laws are unbiased and treat all individuals equally under the law. Ultimately, a good law should also be fair, ensuring that justice is served and the rights of all individuals are protected.

Who writes laws?
Laws are typically written by legislators, who are elected officials responsible for creating, amending, and repealing laws. In democratic societies, legislators are usually members of a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress, and they represent the interests of the people who elected them. The process of writing laws involves research, debate, and collaboration among legislators to ensure that the laws are fair, just, and in the best interest of society as a whole.

What were the animal protection laws like in the Wild West?
In the Wild West, animal protection laws were virtually non-existent. Animals were often treated as disposable commodities, and there were no regulations in place to ensure their humane treatment. Horses, in particular, were heavily used for transportation and labor, and were often subjected to harsh conditions and mistreatment. There were no laws to protect them from abuse or neglect, and their welfare was not a priority in the frontier society of the time.
