Book
Tyler, C. (2006). Idealist Political Philosophy: Pluralism and conflict in the absolute idealist tradition. Continuum

Viewing static photographs of objects in motion evokes higher fMRI activation in the human medial temporal complex ( MT+) than looking at similar photographs without this implied motion. As MT+ is traditionally thought to be involved in motion percep... Read More about Delayed response to animate implied motion in human motion processing areas.

The study utilises Foucault's work on ‘productive power’, the ‘practices of t... Read More about Productive power and the 'practices of the self' in contraceptive counselling.

Genetic evidence for female-biased dispersal and gene flow in a polygynous primate (2006)
Journal Article

Many models of sex-biased dispersal predict that the direction of sex-bias depends upon a species' mating system. In agreement with this, almost all polygynous mammals show male-biased dispersal whereas largely monogamous birds show female-biased dis...
