榮獲英國艾凡提斯科學圖書大獎（Aventis Prize for science books）約翰‧多恩在《沉思錄》裡面說道：「沒有人是孤島」，但是，我們究竟是如何受別人的行為所影響呢？是否有某種「自然法則」在引導著人類事務？當我們在創造社會時，是否擁有完全的自由？或者，我們受限於「人類的天性」？在人類的各種事務中，它們又是如何環環相扣的呢？ 菲利浦‧鮑爾的《用物理學找到美麗新世界》

Britain has long been recognised for its proud contribution to documentary cinema, yet its long tradition of scientific and medical documentaries remains underrepresented in the literature on nonfiction film. Films of Fact is the first in-depth history of the genre, which began with amateur hobbyists in the early twentieth century, played a key role in government post-war health programmes, and became a treasured part of popular culture with BBC2's Horizon and the programming of Channel 4. Central to the narrative is Paul Rotha, a pioneering advocate of science broadcasting of the post-war period, and a figure second only to John Grierson in British documentary history, who helped nurture the collaborative ethos and practices that make scientific and medical documentaries a unique subgenre of documentary cinema. Written by a specialist scientific scholar, Films of Fact is a landmark text on a crucial yet rarely discussed aspect of British popular culture. Discussed are films such as Wo

To be convicted of a crime in the United States, a person must be proven guilty ?beyond a reasonable doubt.” But what is reasonable doubt? Even sophisticated legal experts find this fundamental doctrine difficult to explain. In this accessible book, James Q. Whitman digs deep into the history of the law and discovers that we have lost sight of the original purpose of ?reasonable doubt.” It was not originally a legal rule at all, he shows, but a theological one.The rule as we understand it today is intended to protect the accused. But Whitman traces its history back through centuries of Christian theology and common-law history to reveal that the original concern was to protect the souls of jurors. In Christian tradition, a person who experienced doubt yet convicted an innocent defendant was guilty of a mortal sin. Jurors fearful for their own souls were reassured that they were safe, as long as their doubts were not ?reasonable.” Today, the old rule of reasonable doubt survives, but it
