Monografie e Capitoli in opere collettanee

Focusing on cell dynamics, molecular medicine and robotics, contributors explore the interplay between biological, technological and theoretical ways of thinking. They argue that the direction of modern science means that these areas can no longer be explored independently but must be integrated if we are to better understand the world. The collection makes a strong contribution to current debates in the philosophy of science and the changing role of scientific practice.

Biometrics provides a further step in the path of science towards quantification of reality. The ancient philosophy of being provides epistemological foundations for a heuristic biometrics. Modern physiology supports the goal of second generation biometrics to detect intentions, since a strong link has been proven to exist between emotions and their easily measurable physiological alterations. Moreover, it has been seen how the body is pre-shaped by the goal of the action it is going to perform. It has been analysed what the sensor recording of identity philosophically means and how this operation reshapes the self-identity. Epistemological investigations have been provided in order to understand limitations and potentials of biometrics and to ground a moral recognition organic to their epistemological status.
